Haha, you guys are making my head spin. Why don't we just go with Cloud Storage and stuff everything in there? I mean, it's scalable, right? Oh, wait, that's probably not the best idea for a transactional system. Nevermind, forget I said that.

Interesting point, Odelia. I was also considering BigQuery, since it's designed for massive datasets and can handle the kind of analytical workloads you'd expect from a payment system. Plus, the serverless nature could be a real time-saver.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Cloud Spanner is great, but it might be overkill for this use case. Cloud SQL could work, and it's a bit more cost-effective. Although, the 'unlimited growth' part does make me a bit nervous about going with a traditional relational database.

I agree, BigQuery seems like a scalable solution that could handle the anticipated growth effectively.

BigQuery could definitely be a good fit for managing the increasing amount of data stored by the organization.

What about BigQuery? It's designed for handling large datasets and could scale well with the organization's growth.

But, the unlimited growth factor makes me hesitant about using a traditional relational database like Cloud SQL.

Cloud Spanner sounds like a good choice, but it might be too much for this organization.

Oof, this is a tough one. We're talking about managing payments and bank accounts, so consistency and scalability are key. I'm leaning towards Cloud Spanner - it promises ACID-compliant transactions and can handle massive amounts of data.
