Selected Answer: C
The requirements say that the logs should be easily searchable. This is not easily achieved in Cloud Storage, so that eliminates A,B and D. That leaves C and the valid option. Note, that it's possible to configure Cloud Logging with a custom retention period. https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs/buckets#custom-retention

Tricky question. Easily searchable is the key here. Cloud logging supports retaining the logs between 1 to 3650 (10 years max) and we can set custom retention period on the cloud logs.

Selected Answer: C
C is the correct answer instead. https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs/routing/overview#logs-retention Cloud Logging retains logs according to retention rules applying to the log bucket type where the logs are held. You can configure Cloud Logging to retain logs between 1 day and 3650 days. Custom retention rules apply to all the logs in a bucket, regardless of the log type or whether that log has been copied from another location.
