Answer options:

Cloud Pub/Sub

Cloud Dataflow

BigQuery

Cloud SQL

Dataproc

Cloud Storage

How to approach this question

Identify the standard GCP trio for streaming data: Ingest -> Process -> Analyze.

Full Answer

The canonical GCP architecture for streaming analytics is: Pub/Sub (Ingestion) -> Dataflow (Processing/Transformation) -> BigQuery (Data Warehouse/Analytics). All three are fully managed, serverless, and scale automatically.

Common mistakes
