Question 530
A platform support team owns scheduled batch processing SLAs. Engineers have applied Differentiate task retries from terminal job run failure notifications. Which result establishes the required behavior: A retry event should not notify customers as if the entire workflow failed?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Only final exhausted failure triggers the customer-facing incident notice is the matching outcome for the implemented control (Differentiate task retries from terminal job run failure notifications) and the stated requirement “A retry event should not notify customers as if the entire workflow failed.”
Incorrect Answers
The on-call group receives a message after the defined duration would demonstrate the separate action Configure a duration-based warning or supported monitoring alert, which addresses “A job unexpectedly exceeds its runtime SLA without failing.” It does not verify the requirement “A retry event should not notify customers as if the entire workflow failed” following Differentiate task retries from terminal job run failure notifications.
That observation is a valid indicator for “A job succeeded but produced no records and needs a semantic data-quality alert” when using Publish a validated row-count metric and alert on the threshold. The scenario instead tests “A retry event should not notify customers as if the entire workflow failed”; the relevant result is Only final exhausted failure triggers the customer-facing incident notice.
That observation is a valid indicator for “The team must trigger remediation when a job's retry budget is exhausted” when using Use Jobs run-state monitoring with an authorized webhook or event action. The scenario instead tests “A retry event should not notify customers as if the entire workflow failed”; the relevant result is Only final exhausted failure triggers the customer-facing incident notice.
