Designing scalable, available, and reliable cloud-native applications

The company has just experienced a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) API outage caused by a zone failure. You want to deploy a highly available GKE architecture that minimizes service interruption for users if a future zone failure occurs. What should you do?

  • A Deploy Zonal clusters
  • B Deploy Regional clusters
  • C Deploy Multi-Zone clusters
  • D Deploy GKE on-premises clusters
Explanation

Regional GKE clusters replicate the control plane across multiple zones within a region, so a single-zone failure does not take down the Kubernetes API. They also distribute worker nodes across multiple zones by default, improving workload availability when sufficient replicas and capacity are configured.
