Question

Your company was recently impacted by a service disruption that caused multiple Dataflow jobs to get stuck, resulting in significant downtime in downstream applications and revenue loss. You were able to resolve the issue by identifying and fixing an error you found in the code. You need to design a solution with minimal management effort to identify when jobs are stuck in the future to ensure that this issue does not occur again. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: Set up Cloud Monitoring alerts on the data freshness metric for the Dataflow jobs to receive a notification when a certain threshold is reached. Dataflow runs serverless Apache Beam pipelines for stream and batch data processing with autoscaling. Cloud Monitoring collects metrics, dashboards, and alerts to observe system health.
