Which security configuration error could cause a deployment to fail because the application cannot access a required API?

The API key is missing or invalid

A company uses a CI/CD pipeline to deploy applications. The deployment script fails during the 'provisioning' stage with an error that a resource already exists. The script is idempotent, but the error persists. What is the most likely cause?

The script does not handle the 'already exists' response correctly

The script's credentials lack permission to create resources

The script is using the wrong region

The cloud provider has an outage

A company deploys a new application to a cloud environment with multiple VMs behind a load balancer. After deployment, some users report errors while others do not. The load balancer health checks are failing for one of the VMs. The VM is running and the application process is active. What should the administrator investigate?

The load balancer's SSL certificate

The VM's network security group rules for the health check port

The application's database connection string

Before deploying a new application, which check is essential to ensure the application runs correctly on the target operating system?

Verify the application's OS compatibility

Confirm the storage account type

Review the security group rules

A DevOps team uses an automation script to deploy a microservices application. The script fails during the deployment of the third service. The error log shows a 'timeout' when waiting for the service to become healthy. The service is resource-intensive and takes longer to start than the script's health check timeout. What is the best solution?

Increase the health check timeout in the script

Roll back the entire deployment

Deploy the third service manually

Reduce the service's resource allocation
