Your team is publishing research results and needs to make large (Digital Leader)

Correct answer: A) Use a Cloud Storage bucket and enable ג€Requester Paysג€.
Enabling "Requester Pays" in a Cloud Storage bucket allows you to share the costs of accessing the data with the users who access it. This means that instead of your team bearing the full cost of data egress (outbound data transfer), users who access the data will be charged for the data they retrieve. This can significantly reduce the cost for your team when making large amounts of data available to others, especially in the case of public access.

Option B, providing Signed URLs, is suitable for controlling access to specific users or applications, but it doesn't address the cost aspect of making data available to the public at minimum cost.

Options C and D involve setting up Cloud Interconnect connections, which are typically used for high-speed, secure connections between on-premises networks and Google Cloud Platform. However, they don't address the requirement of making data available to the public at minimum cost. Additionally, hosting the data on-premises may not be as cost-effective or scalable as using Cloud Storage.
