QuestionQ23

Ensuring data protection

An organization is beginning to move its infrastructure from its on-premises environment to Google Cloud Platform (GCP). As its initial step, the organization wants to migrate its ongoing data backup and disaster recovery solutions to GCP. Migration of the organization's on-premises production environment to GCP will be the next phase. Stable network connectivity between the on-premises environment and GCP is also being implemented.

Which GCP solution should the organization use?

  • A BigQuery using a data pipeline job with continuous updates via Cloud VPN
  • B Cloud Storage using a scheduled task and gsutil via Cloud Interconnect
  • C Compute Engines Virtual Machines using Persistent Disk via Cloud Interconnect
  • D Cloud Datastore using regularly scheduled batch upload jobs via Cloud VPN
Explanation

Cloud Storage is designed to hold backup files and supports scheduled transfers from an on-premises environment. Cloud Interconnect provides stable private connectivity to Google Cloud, making scheduled gsutil uploads to Cloud Storage an appropriate backup and disaster-recovery solution before migrating production workloads.
