Question 10
An organization argues that cloud customers must buy the same maximum capacity as a private data center. Which response BEST fits this cloud scenario?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Explain variable cost economics and scaling capacity with actual usage. This choice addresses the specific business requirement: Consumption-based capacity changes the need to commit to peak demand hardware. A clear way to confirm success is: A cost model scales hourly compute spend with active workload hours. To sustain the result: Budget for storage and network charges even when compute scales down.
