Is this GCP foundation actually production-ready?

The minimum signals — not just technically deployed.

Org policies and IAM least-privilege verified, not assumed
Backup restore drills actually run, on a schedule
Budget alerts tied to real automation, not just notifications
Observability covers all five Cloud Operations products where relevant
Every "temporary" grant expires itself via an IAM condition
This deck compressed eight chapters into a fast visual review — the full tutorial series carries the worked examples, real incidents, and practice problems left out here to stay presentation-first. Passing the ACE exam and running GCP well are the same underlying competence.
