Data Preparation and Ingestion

Your retail company gathers customer data from several sources:

  • Online transactions: Stored in a MySQL database
  • Customer feedback: Stored as text files on a company server
  • Social media activity: Streamed in real time from social media platforms

You are designing a data pipeline to extract this data. Which Google Cloud storage system(s) should you choose for further analysis and ML model training?

Explanation

BigQuery is a fully managed analytics platform with built-in machine learning support and continuous streaming ingestion, making it suitable for extracted transaction data and real-time social-media events. Cloud Storage stores file objects and is appropriate for the text-based customer-feedback files. BigQuery can also analyze unstructured data retained in Cloud Storage.
