The correct option is Place data into cloud storage.

Placing data into cloud storage is the initial ingestion and storage phase in a typical cloud data lifecycle. Data must be captured and placed into a storage location before it can be processed or protected and so ingestion into storage logically comes first.

Process data for use is incorrect because processing assumes the data has already been ingested and stored and therefore does not occur first.

Create backup copies is incorrect because backups are a protective action taken after the data exists in storage and are not the initial ingestion step.

Move data into archive storage is incorrect because archiving is a later lifecycle stage intended for long term retention and typically follows initial storage and primary use.
