Exam Professional Cloud Developer topic 1 question 22 discussion

bruh !! it clearly says diagnose the problem, monitoirng will only monitor it will not diagnose the issue, it should be D

Here's why the other options are less suitable: A. Stackdriver Trace: Trace focuses on tracking the flow of requests through your application, providing insights into latency and performance bottlenecks. While helpful, it doesn't directly show you the state of variables within your code. B. Stackdriver Monitoring: Monitoring provides metrics and dashboards for overall application health and performance. It's great for identifying issues like high latency or errors, but it doesn't offer the granular code-level debugging that snapshots provide. D. Stackdriver Debug Logpoints: Logpoints allow you to add log statements to your application on the fly without redeploying. This is useful for adding debugging information, but it requires you to know where to add the log statements, which might not be obvious if you're unsure of the problem's location.

Stackdriver Debug Logpoints is a feature of Stackdriver Debugger that allows you to insert logging statements into your code without modifying or redeploying your application. This can be useful for troubleshooting issues with your application, as it allows you to output data to the log without having to modify your code and redeploy the application. To use Stackdriver Debug Logpoints to monitor your application, you would need to insert logpoints into your code at strategic points, and then analyze the log output to identify any issues or problems. However, this would not be a real-time monitoring solution, and it would not allow you to continuously monitor your application for issues. Instead, it would be a way to investigate issues after they have occurred, by examining the log output that was generated.

But it says that you want to "monitor the application over time" first, not that you want to start debugging it already.
