I practiced a similar question where we had to choose between different data transfer methods, and I think using an FTP server might not be the best choice due to security concerns.

I think Cloud Dataflow could be a good option, but I’m not clear on how it would work with the existing on-premises applications.

I remember we discussed using gsutil for syncing data, but I'm not sure if it can handle the daily updates efficiently.
