Ans is B. A cost efficient disaster recovery solution is needed not a data warehouse.

Selected Answer: B

B is correct. It is about data backup, DR, not the database backup to GCP. BQ is not cost efficient compare to GCS

the two keywords here are 'later' and 'cost-efficient'. The company doesnt even know when the analysis will occur but they want to store the data. Storing it in BigQuery will not be cost-efficient for later analysis. Cloud Storage Archive is the best deal here.

For later analysis means not now, so Bigquery is not required at this moment. Cloud storage content can be ingested in BigQuery 'later'. So should be B instead of A.

Imho A: "The first step the organization wants to take is to migrate its current data backup and disaster recovery solutions to GCP for later analysis" both solutions are scalable and cost efficient, but cloud storage is not designed for queirng, therefore data analysis would be easier in BigQuery.

I would go for B, but a doubt remains: it is talking about Disaster Recovery solution, which could not only be related to data but also to VM and applications running inside VMs. any way B is more cost-efficient than A, considering also that data backup need to be moved to GCP.
