A machine learning platform runs multiple inference services in a Kubernetes cluster. The operations team wants to monitor resource utilization and set up alerts when CPU usage exceeds 85% for 10 minutes. Which tool should they use to collect and query these metrics?

Prometheus with the Kubernetes metrics API.

Trident's monitoring dashboard.

A PVC for an AI workload remains in the Pending state. What is the most likely cause, and which command would you use to confirm it?

The pod is not scheduled; use kubectl get pods to see the pod status.

The namespace is full; use kubectl get ns to check namespace status.

The StorageClass does not exist or is misconfigured; use kubectl describe pvc to see the error.

The volume is too large; use kubectl get pv to see the available volumes.
