Correct answer: Lease a Transfer Appliance, load archived files and ship to Google to ingest to Cloud Storage. Provision Dedicated Interconnect or Direct Peering to upload daily data..
Why this is the answer
The correct option addresses both the large one-time data transfer and the ongoing daily ingestion efficiently. Transfer Appliance is ideal for moving 900 TB of archived data, as a 100 Mbps link would take years. For the 10 TB/day ongoing ingestion, Dedicated Interconnect or Direct Peering provides the necessary bandwidth and reliability, significantly outperforming the existing 100 Mbps internet link. Compressing and uploading all data with gsutil -m over a 100 Mbps link is too slow for both the initial archive and the daily ingestion. Using a single Cloud VPN over the internet, even with compression, would still be constrained by the 100 Mbps link for 10 TB/day, leading to significant delays and potential bottlenecks. While Cloud VPN adds security, it doesn't solve the bandwidth limitation for large daily transfers.
