GCP PCA · Question 42 · Develop procedures for resilience

Your SRE team wants to implement Chaos Engineering to test the resilience of a microservices architecture running on GKE. Which TWO practices align with Chaos Engineering principles? (Select TWO)

Answer options:

A.

Running load tests in a staging environment before a major release.

B.

Randomly terminating pods during business hours to verify self-healing.

C.

Injecting artificial latency into network calls between microservices.

D.

Performing a scheduled disaster recovery failover to a secondary region on a weekend.

E.

Reviewing application code for potential null pointer exceptions.

How to approach this question

Identify practices that involve intentionally injecting failures or degradation into a live system to test resilience.

Full Answer

Randomly terminating pods during business hours to verify self-healing., Injecting artificial latency into network calls between microservices.
Chaos Engineering is the discipline of experimenting on a system in order to build confidence in its capability to withstand turbulent conditions in production. Randomly terminating instances (pods) and injecting network latency are core techniques to validate that self-healing, retries, and circuit breakers work correctly.

Common mistakes

Selecting standard testing practices (A, D) instead of intentional failure injection.
