Data within the Data Ocean is stored within two fully managed services on Google Cloud Platform.
- Initial Raw Storage and Staging Area - Google Cloud Storage
- Database - Google BigQuery
Google Cloud Storage is used as the primary staging area for data being received from various source applications. Once data is loaded into Cloud Storage, it is then loaded into BigQuery in a raw state and then transformed and loaded into the Operational Data Store (ODS) dataset and eventually other datasets.
The data that transits into both Cloud Storage and BigQuery all passes over Google's Public API's. Information concerning the security can be referenced here: https://cloud.google.com/docs/security/encryption-in-transit#cio-level_summary
