Exam CCSP topic 1 question 136 discussion

When the data is multi tenant, you cannot have access to the each tenant and get the data , it is a big concern, when the question says whats the biggest concern, it should be multi tenancy.

The biggest challenge to data discovery in a cloud environment is location, because cloud data is often distributed across multiple regions, data centers, and even different cloud providers. This creates difficulties in: Tracking where data resides → Cloud providers often store data in multiple locations for redundancy and performance optimization, making it hard to pinpoint its exact location. Legal & Compliance Issues → Different countries have data sovereignty laws (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) that regulate where data can be stored, making discovery even more complex. Dynamic Environments → Cloud workloads can scale, migrate, or get replicated across various regions, affecting data visibility.

Laws and regulations may limit the types or methods of discovery you can engage in, or what you can do with the data, as well as where and how you can store it. The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has requirements that impact where and how you store data and thus may have an impact on discovery, and other regulations may also apply, depending on your organization’s compliance requirements.
