    GCP PCA · Question 43 · Ensure solution and operations reliability

    You are defining Service Level Indicators (SLIs) for a user-facing e-commerce website. According to Google's SRE practices, which TWO metrics are the most appropriate SLIs for a request-driven web service? (Select TWO)

    Answer options:

    A.

    CPU Utilization of the web servers

    B.

    Availability (Error Rate)

    C.

    Lines of code deployed per week

    D.

    Latency (Response Time)

    E.

    Number of database connections

    How to approach this question

    Select metrics that directly measure the user's experience, not internal system resources.

    Full Answer

    Availability (Error Rate), Latency (Response Time)
    Service Level Indicators (SLIs) should measure the service from the perspective of the user. For request-driven services (like a website), the most critical SLIs are Availability (did I get a 200 OK or a 500 Error?) and Latency (did it load in 200ms or 5 seconds?). Internal metrics like CPU or memory are useful for debugging but are poor SLIs.

    Common mistakes

    Choosing internal metrics like CPU Utilization (A), which is a common mistake for teams transitioning from traditional IT ops to SRE.
