AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 908

Which of the following are advantages of the AWS Cloud? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. AWS management of user-owned infrastructure
• B. Ability to quickly change required capacity
• C. High economies of scale
• D. Increased deployment time to market
• E. Increased fixed expenses

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The AWS Cloud offers massive economies of scale, which translates into lower pay-as-you-go prices for customers as collective usage grows. Additionally, it provides elasticity, allowing businesses to rapidly scale resource capacity up or down on demand to match changing workloads. In contrast, cloud computing reduces fixed capital expenses and accelerates time to market, making the other options incorrect.
