How to approach this question
Identify the GCP service for Continuous Integration (building) and the service for Continuous Delivery (deploying with approvals).
Full Answer
Cloud Build
Cloud Deploy
A modern CI/CD pipeline on Google Cloud uses Cloud Build (Option A) for Continuous Integration (running tests, building containers). For Continuous Delivery, Cloud Deploy (Option B) is used to define delivery pipelines, manage progression through environments (Staging -> Prod), and enforce manual approval gates before production deployment.
Common mistakes
Assuming Cloud Build does everything. While Cloud Build *can* deploy, Cloud Deploy is the purpose-built service for managing multi-environment releases and approvals.
