C, Cloud Spanner, keywords are globally, relational structure and lastly "clients from all over the world should get the exact identical state of the data" which implies strong consistency is needed.

Selected Answer: C
The best option is: C. Use Cloud Spanner for data storage. Reason: Cloud Spanner is the only Google Cloud database that provides: Global consistency: Ensures all users worldwide see the exact same state of the data. Relational structure: Fully supports SQL queries and relational database schema. Low latency: Replicates data across multiple regions to minimize read/write latency for global users. Scalability: Designed to handle high-scale applications like financial trading. Other options don't meet the requirements: A. Cloud Bigtable: No relational structure; optimized for wide-column use cases, not relational data. B. Cloud SQL: Limited to regional deployments, not suitable for globally distributed applications. D. Firestore: Designed for document-based structures, not ideal for relational database use.
