[All Professional Cloud Developer Questions]

You are a developer at a large organization. You have an application written in Go running in a production Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster. You need to add a new feature that requires access to BigQuery. You want to grant BigQuery access to your GKE cluster following Google-recommended best practices. What should you do?

  • A. Create a Google service account with BigQuery access. Add the JSON key to Secret Manager, and use the Go client library to access the JSON key.
  • B. Create a Google service account with BigQuery access. Add the Google service account JSON key as a Kubernetes secret, and configure the application to use this secret.
  • C. Create a Google service account with BigQuery access. Add the Google service account JSON key to Secret Manager, and use an init container to access the secret for the application to use.
  • D. Create a Google service account and a Kubernetes service account. Configure Workload Identity on the GKE cluster, and reference the Kubernetes service account on the application Deployment.

Workload Identity allows a Kubernetes service account in your GKE cluster to act as an IAM service account. Pods that use the configured Kubernetes service account automatically authenticate as the IAM service account when accessing Google Cloud APIs. Using Workload Identity allows you to assign distinct, fine-grained identities and authorization for each application in your cluster. https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/concepts/workload-identity#what_is
