Selected Answer: B

The most accurate answer would be Option B: Use a custom big object to store archived case data. Big Objects in Salesforce are designed to provide consistent performance, whether you’re dealing with millions or billions of records. They are ideal for storing large amounts of data that you don’t need to access frequently, such as historical data. This makes them a good fit for UC’s requirement of keeping historical cases accessible for 10 years for audit purposes.

Selected Answer: C

This is a scalable solution and would allow to store the records accordingly as option D will also bring a lot of storage burden on the org

Not Option C: Archive case data using a Salesforce Archival solution. Salesforce does not provide an out-of-the-box archival solution. While there are third-party archival solutions available, they might not be as seamless or efficient as using a feature that is native to Salesforce, like Big Objects.
