Exam Associate-Data-Practitioner Topic 2 Question 42 Discussion

Actual exam question for Google's Associate-Data-Practitioner exam
Question #: 42
Topic #: 2
Your organization is building a new application on Google Cloud. Several data files will need to be stored in Cloud Storage. Your organization has approved only two specific cloud regions where these data files can reside. You need to determine a Cloud Storage bucket strategy that includes automated high availability.
What should you do?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:
The strategy requires storage in two specific regions with automated high availability (HA). Cloud Storage location options dictate the solution:
* Option A: A dual-region bucket (e.g., us-west1 and us-east1) replicates data synchronously across two user-specified regions, ensuring HA without manual intervention. It's fully automated and meets the requirement.
* Option B: Two single-region buckets with gcloud storage replication is manual, not automated, and lacks real-time HA (requires scripting and monitoring).
* Option C: Multi-region buckets (e.g., us) span multiple regions within a geography but don't let you specify exactly two regions, potentially violating the restriction.
