Question #: 8
Topic #: 1
You work for a financial organization that stores transaction data in BigQuery. Your organization has a regulatory requirement to retain data for a minimum of seven years for auditing purposes. You need to ensure that the data is retained for seven years using an efficient and cost-optimized approach. What should you do?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

Setting a table-level retention policy in BigQuery to seven years is the most efficient and cost-optimized solution to meet the regulatory requirement. A table-level retention policy ensures that the data cannot be deleted or overwritten before the specified retention period expires, providing compliance with auditing requirements while keeping the data within BigQuery for easy access and analysis. This approach avoids the complexity and additional costs of exporting data to Cloud Storage.
