Designing and Implementing Scalable and Highly Available Database Solutions

Question

Your organization deploys a high-volume, low-latency sensor data ingestion system. Resilience is crucial, and the workload is expected to grow significantly over time. You need to design a database tier on Google Cloud to ensure faster performance and high availability, while following Google-recommended practices. What should you do-

Options

  • ADeploy multiple Bigtable clusters, shard data manually across them, and set up the application
  • BDeploy a single-zone Bigtable cluster and optimize the application code for maximum write
  • CDeploy a single-region Bigtable instance and increase the nodes to maximize data durability.
  • DProvision a multi-zone Bigtable cluster, configure replication, perform an application stress-test,
