They have a relational oracle DB with complex table structure. I dont think Data storw will work for them. Answer should be A ( Cloud Spanner)

But yeah it is debatable on how much moderization we take. With Cloudspanner ( require less modernisation compared to Datastore) With Cloud SQL ( Require less modernisation compared to Datastore) With datastore - Best solution eventually - but the most tricky migration and modernisation. very subjective question

D is ok https://cloud.google.com/datastore/docs/concepts/overview Datastore is ideal for applications that rely on highly available structured data at scale. You can use Datastore to store and query all of the following types of data: Product catalogs that provide real-time inventory and product details for a retailer. User profiles that deliver a customized experience based on the user’s past activities and preferences. Transactions based on ACID properties, for example, transferring funds from one bank account to another.

The requirement is Global and also they nedd relational database which cloud datstore doesn't allow and bigquery is datawarehouse and for analysis and cloud sql support upto 30 TB relational database.So A should be correct.

C, because this company used PostgreSQL before. No reason to use NoSQL(D), Not for analytic(B), not PB level data so no need to use Spanner(A).

Selected Answer: C
Since it is relational data, it should be A or C. Cloud SQL is the only that supports the Oracle SQL features, like Procedures and triggers, etc. I also think Cloud Spanner seems to be an overkill since it is a 20TB database, which Cloud SQL easily handles IMO, C is the cheapest and easiest, while A would require some refactorings and longer migration, which doesnt pay off for the current database's size

A: Spanner retains the RDBMS compatibility and helps to reduce latency for any Asia resources B: BigQuery no good for OLTP C: CloudSQL, the closest option we have to Oracle D: Significant architectural change but potentially a great alternative to RDBMS, document database typically a good fit for user data & as others have said it can eliminate the complex RDBMS structure and queries The problem I have with Spanner is the cost, it is extremely expensive compared to the other options, so is it really needed? But when I review the requierments I don't see cost as being up there whilst latency to Asia it is, so whilst I intuitively picked Datastore I'll revise to Spanner.

I don't get why B isn't correct. Cloud Storage isn't a good replacement for SAN, especially when we have a database running on some of the VMs.

Cloud Spanner is a fully managed, scalable, and globally distributed relational database service. It provides strong consistency, high availability, and low-latency capabilities, which would be suitable for JencoMart's User Profiles database requirements.
