Your team is designing an e-commerce platform hosted on Compute Engine managed instance groups in two zones of the us-central1 region. You must add a managed Redis cache that (1) survives a single-zone outage, (2) avoids inter-region latency and egress costs, and (3) requires you to select a location when creating it. Which Google Cloud location type satisfies these requirements?
Regional resources are replicated across two or more zones within the same region, so the cache remains available if one zone fails. Because all replicas stay inside a single region, you avoid cross-region latency and egress charges, and you still specify the region at creation time. Zonal resources reside in only one zone and fail if that zone is unavailable. Multi-regional resources replicate across multiple regions-exceeding the stated requirement and potentially adding inter-region traffic. Global resources are not bound to a specific region and therefore do not meet the requirement to choose a location within us-central1.
