Answer options:
A.
Cloud Dataflow.
B.
Cloud Build.
C.
Cloud Spanner.
D.
Anthos Config Management (Config Sync).
E.
Cloud Endpoints.
How to approach this question
Identify the CI tool (builds images) and the GitOps CD tool (syncs Git to Kubernetes).
Full Answer
B,D
In a GitOps workflow on GCP, Cloud Build handles the Continuous Integration (CI) phase: it detects a commit, runs tests, builds a Docker image, and pushes it to Artifact Registry. Anthos Config Management (specifically Config Sync) handles the Continuous Deployment (CD) phase: it runs inside the GKE cluster, constantly polling a Git repository for changes to Kubernetes YAML files, and automatically applying those changes to the cluster.
Common mistakes
Not recognizing Config Sync as the GitOps engine. Traditional CD pushes to the cluster; GitOps pulls from the repo.
