Selected Answer: B
I voted A. I understand the impulse to choose B, parallel upload. But remember that this is the first step in an ETL process that, as I understand it, when a file is uploaded an extraction process starts and then the load. If multiple files finish uploading at the same time, the extraction and loading process get triggered in parallel too and can cause errors if they are not prepared to handle this type of process. Anyway, now that I read the question again, I don't see that it specifies any kind of automation like I was thinking, so B is probably fine in this case...

Selected Answer: C
Why not C? Batch copy files in parallel is fine but is for one-time case or eventually cause, it will require manual intervention.. So with these cases I will choose C. Maybe a better solution will be to have some event driven communication like Kafka or pub sub, but in this scenario is more schedule, ETL tool looks good fit.

Correct Answer: B https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/gsutil/commands/cp If you have a large number of files to transfer, you can perform a parallel multi-threaded/multi-processing copy using the top-level gsutil -m option (see gsutil help options): gsutil -m cp -r dir gs://my-bucket
