Question 21

Question

An organization is starting to move its infrastructure from its on-premises environment to Google
Cloud Platform (GCP). The first step the organization wants to take is to migrate its ongoing data
backup and disaster recovery solutions to GCP. The organization's on-premises production
environment is going to be the next phase for migration to GCP. Stable networking connectivity
between the on-premises environment and GCP is also being implemented.
Which GCP solution should the organization use?

Accepted Answer

Cloud Storage using a scheduled task and gsutil via Cloud Interconnect

Noah · Answer

Option B, Cloud Storage with scheduled tasks is the best fit for backups, especially when stable networking like Interconnect is in place. That's what I'd pick here.

Ava M. · Answer

B, exam questions on GCP backup/DR usually point you to Cloud Storage and gsutil. I'd check the official guide too.

Jack L. · Answer

I don’t think it’s D. B fits better since Cloud Storage with gsutil is the standard for ongoing backup and DR over a reliable connection like Cloud Interconnect. Datastore (D) is more for app data, not bulk file backups. Pretty sure B is right here, but open to other takes.

B

Hannah · Answer

D or C? I've seen similar exam questions and usually official docs emphasize Cloud Storage, but for backup of structured data or VMs, Datastore or Persistent Disk gets mentioned in some practice tests. Might be missing a nuance here, definitely worth double checking official GCP documentation.
