Not sure about Firestore, isn't it more for document storage?

Cloud Spanner might be overkill for this use case.

I feel like Cloud SQL could work, but the schema issues we talked about make me lean towards Cloud Datastore.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think Cloud Storage is more for files, not user state.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think Cloud Spanner might be overkill for just user state information, right?

I remember we discussed how Cloud Datastore is great for user-specific data since it scales automatically.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the key features that improve the application experience in a Cisco SD-WAN design.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem to cover a range of networking and security-related tasks, and I'm not sure which one is the correct use of the Scapy library. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This question is testing our detailed knowledge of CDB features. I'll need to draw on my understanding of the differences between CDBs and non-CDBs to answer this correctly.

Real-time adherence seems like the most logical choice here. If you're trying to stay on top of forecast deviations, you'll want to be able to see what's happening in the moment, not just historical data. I feel pretty confident about this one.
