Question

Your digital media company stores a large number of video files on-premises. Each video file ranges from 100 MB to 100 GB. You are currently storing 150 TB of video data in your on-premises network, with no room for expansion. You need to migrate all infrequently accessed video files older than one year to Cloud Storage to ensure that on-premises storage remains available for new files. You must also minimize costs and control bandwidth usage. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: Use Transfer Appliance to request an appliance. Load the data locally, and ship the appliance back to Google for ingestion into Cloud Storage. Cloud Storage provides durable, scalable object storage that is fully managed. Transfer Appliance physically ships large datasets to Google Cloud when bandwidth is limited. This option delivers the requirement at the lowest cost.
