Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

The new version of the application is deployed to one of the environments, and then traffic is gradually shifted to the updated environment. This strategy allows the team to test the new version before releasing it to the public, ensuring that it is operating as expected. After the new version is tested and approved, traffic is fully shifted to the new environment and the old environment is shut down.

I heard the exam is really trying to see who can come up with the most creative ways to store sensitive information. Maybe we should suggest hiding it in a tweet or a YouTube comment section.

A secure DNS CTEXT entry? Is this exam testing my creative writing skills or my DevSecOps knowledge?

Docker environment variable? I hope that's not the correct answer, otherwise I'm going to have to rethink my career choice.

Encoding the username/password in a DNS CTEXT entry? That's gotta be a joke, right? I'm going with Docker secrets for sure.

Option D, Docker secrets, seems like the safest way to provide sensitive information to a container. Putting it in an environment variable in the Dockerfile is a big no-no.
