I would say D: A and C (Terraform): While Terraform is a powerful tool, it introduces additional complexity compared to using gcloud commands directly. Terraform is better suited for managing large-scale infrastructure, not just deploying a single Cloud Run revision. Adding gcloud commands to a Cloud Build script is much easier and faster than using terraform

Selected Answer: D

Why other options are not as efficient: A and C (Terraform): While Terraform is a powerful tool, it introduces additional complexity compared to using gcloud commands directly. Terraform is better suited for managing large-scale infrastructure, not just deploying a single Cloud Run revision. B (Terraform with traffic splitting): Similar to options A and C, using Terraform for this task adds unnecessary complexity. Traffic splitting can be easily configured using gcloud commands.
