QuestionQ176

Designing and planning a cloud solution architecture

An application development team believes that its current logging tool will not satisfy the needs of its new cloud-based product. They want a better tool to capture errors and help analyze historical log data. You want to help them find a solution that meets their needs.

What should you do?

  • A Direct them to download and install the Google StackDriver logging agent
  • B Send them a list of online resources about logging best practices
  • C Help them define their requirements and assess viable logging tools
  • D Help them upgrade their current tool to take advantage of any new features
Explanation

A sound tool-selection process starts by defining functional and operational requirements—such as error capture, log retention, search, analysis, integrations, cost, and scalability—and evaluating viable tools against those requirements. This ensures the recommendation fits the product’s actual needs rather than prematurely selecting, upgrading, or installing a particular tool.
