A company is developing an IoT application that processes data from drone sensors. They need a managed database service capable of handling high-volume, low-latency writes, moving away from Hadoop HBase. Which service would you recommend?




Explanation:

Bigtable is the recommended choice for this scenario due to its wide column database structure, which supports low-latency writes, making it ideal for IoT data storage. Additionally, it offers an HBase API, facilitating migration from Hadoop HBase. BigQuery is a data warehouse service, Cloud Firestore is a NoSQL document database, and Cloud Spanner is a globally distributed relational database service.
