The optimal solution stack for building and deploying custom Compute Engine images in a multi-cloud environment that is adaptable to future changes is Cloud Build with Packer, as indicated by (Option A). Cloud Build integrates seamlessly with Packer, a tool for creating machine images across various platforms. This combination provides a flexible and scalable solution for building custom images and deploying them across different cloud providers. Packer allows you to define infrastructure as code and supports multiple cloud providers, ensuring adaptability to future changes in the multi-cloud environment. The unified approach of Cloud Build and Packer streamlines the CI/CD pipeline, enabling efficient image creation and deployment processes while maintaining cross-cloud compatibility.
