• Chose A1

  It seems to be A as per Google's recommended practices. https://docs.cloud.google.com/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/concepts/best-practices-cyber-resilience

• Chose D1

  D is the correct answer: • Disaster Recovery = Rare Access. You only need to touch these backup files if something goes horribly wrong, which is hopefully less than once a year. • Coldline = Cheap Storage for Rare Access. Google designed Coldline specifically for data you access once a quarter or less, making it the most cost-effective choice for emergency backups. • Why not the others? Multi-Regional and Regional (A & B) are for active, everyday data and are way too expensive for backups. Nearline (C) is for data accessed once a month, which is still too frequent for a disaster recovery plan. Basically: Disaster Recovery backups = Coldline

• Chose D1

  Option D is correct.
