CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 104

A technician wants the number of virtual machines hosting a web application in the public cloud environment to scale based on real-time traffic on the website.
Which of the following should the technician configure?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Rapid elasticity, as it allows resources to be scaled up or down automatically based on demand, which is essential for handling varying traffic loads. The other options do not provide the same level of dynamic resource adjustment; Resource pooling refers to the sharing of resources, Measured service pertains to resource usage tracking, and High availability focuses on minimizing downtime rather than scaling resources.
