A cloud engineer needs to limit the maximum number of container instances for an existing Cloud Run service named `inventory-api` to preventing overloading a backend database. Which `gcloud` command should the engineer execute?
- gcloud run services update inventory-api --max-instances=10Answer
- Bgcloud functions deploy inventory-api --max-instances=10
- Cgcloud run services update-traffic inventory-api --max-instances=10
- Dgcloud compute instances update inventory-api --max-instances=10
Answer
Execute `gcloud run services update inventory-api --max-instances=10` to adjust scaling settings on an existing Cloud Run service.
The correct command uses `gcloud run services update` along with the `--max-instances` flag to modify scaling limits on an existing Cloud Run service without affecting traffic splitting or target compute paradigms.
