B) and D) for sure. Crash incidents are the worst, and these two options will help mitigate the impact. Though I do wonder if the engineers will also consider adding some humor to the error messages. 'Oops, our servers seemed to have a case of the Mondays.'

Adding humor to error messages could be a nice touch, but functionality should be the priority.

Definitely B) and D). The high number of inactive sessions and API call spike suggest a need for rate-limiting. Automating error reporting will also help the team quickly identify and resolve issues.

I think the correct answers are B) Determine API rate-limiting requirements and D) Automate server-side error reporting for customers. Implementing rate-limiting and providing better error reporting will help address the spike in API calls and improve the user experience.
