The organization's production environment will remain on- premises for an indefinite time. The organization wants a scalable and cost-efficient solution.
Which GCP solution should the organization use?

  • A. BigQuery using a data pipeline job with continuous updates
  • B. Cloud Storage using a scheduled task and gsutil
  • C. Compute Engine Virtual Machines using Persistent Disk
  • D. Cloud Datastore using regularly scheduled batch upload jobs

B is correct. It is about data backup, DR, not the database backup to GCP. BQ is not cost efficient compare to GCS

the two keywords here are 'later' and 'cost-efficient'. The company doesnt even know when the analysis will occur but they want to store the data. Storing it in BigQuery will not be cost-efficient for later analysis. Cloud Storage Archive is the best deal here.

For later analysis means not now, so Bigquery is not required at this moment. Cloud storage content can be ingested in BigQuery 'later'. So should be B instead of A.

Imho A: "The first step the organization wants to take is to migrate its current data backup and disaster recovery solutions to GCP for later analysis" both solutions are scalable and cost efficient, but cloud storage is not designed for queirng, therefore data analysis would be easier in BigQuery.

Selected Answer: B
The keyword in the question here is "cost-effective". Out of the 3 Disaster Recovery patterns (Cold, Warm, Hot HA), Cold is the most cost-effective which utilizes cloud storage.

I would go for B, but a doubt remains: it is talking about Disaster Recovery solution, which could not only be related to data but also to VM and applications running inside VMs. any way B is more cost-efficient than A, considering also that data backup need to be moved to GCP.
