AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 267

Which cloud computing advantage is a company applying when it uses AWS Regions to increase application availability to users in different countries?

Answer options

• A. Pay-as-you-go pricing
• B. Capacity forecasting
• C. Economies of scale
• D. Global reach

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Deploying applications across multiple AWS Regions allows organizations to reduce latency and improve availability for users worldwide, which directly represents the global reach advantage of cloud computing. Other benefits like pay-as-you-go pricing, capacity forecasting, and economies of scale relate to cost management and resource planning rather than geographic distribution.
