CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 301

Which of the following cloud-based services gives customers the ability to scale resources as needed?

Answer options

• A. Resource pooling
• B. Rapid elasticity
• C. Measured service
• D. Hybrid cloud

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Rapid elasticity, as it allows for the dynamic scaling of resources based on demand. Resource pooling (A) refers to the provider's ability to serve multiple customers using shared resources, while Measured service (C) involves monitoring usage, and Hybrid cloud (D) is a combination of public and private clouds, not specifically about scaling resources.
