Objective 3.2
PCDDeploying containers to GKE
Objective 3.2 sits in Configuring cloud-native applications for deployment, which carries 24% of the Cloud Developer exam. The questions below are original, written from the official objective title above, and each explanation cites the Google Cloud page it rests on.

A worked example
Shown solved, with the whole explanation open: this is what every question here carries.
A team's Pod carries one of the two labels named in a Service selector and never receives any traffic. What does membership actually require?
Correct.
Concept
Treating a selector as a conjunction lets one added label narrow a group without rewriting anything, which is what makes labels usable as an addressing scheme.
Why C
A Pod belongs to a Service only when it carries all of the labels the selector names, so a selector listing two labels admits nothing that has just one.
Source
Understand Kubernetes Services, checked August 2026A Service identifies its member Pods with a selector. For a Pod to be a member of the Service, the Pod must have all of the labels specified in the selector. A label is an arbitrary key/value pair that is attached to an object.
Now you: objective 3.2 questions
No account needed. The explanation opens when you answer.
Sample question 1 of 3
A team points its clients straight at Pod IP addresses and the connections break whenever Pods are replaced. What does a Service supply instead?
Sample question 2 of 3
A team creates a Service of type LoadBalancer and asks whether an in-cluster address exists for it as well. What does that type carry?
Sample question 3 of 3
A team's Service lists port 80 with targetPort 8080, and clients get connection failures every time. What must the container in a member Pod be doing?
