Explanation
Google Cloud Storage paired with Preemptible VMs is the optimal combination for this high-volume satellite imaging use case. Cloud Storage provides durable, highly scalable, cost-effective object storage perfectly suited for storing terabytes of image data continuously. Preemptible VMs offer compute capacity at significantly reduced cost (up to 80% cheaper than regular VMs), which is ideal for batch image processing workloads - if a VM is preempted, the processing job can simply be retried. This combination maximizes cost efficiency without sacrificing capability. Bare Metal Solutions add unnecessary cost and complexity, and standard Compute Engine VMs are more expensive than needed for interruptible batch workloads.
