CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ (CLO-002) — Question 22

Which of the following BEST describes a pay-as-you-go licensing model within a cloud service?

Answer options

• A. Subscription agreement
• B. Perpetual agreement
• C. Enterprise agreement
• D. Promotional agreement

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer, D, indicates a promotional agreement that aligns with the pay-as-you-go model, allowing flexibility in payment based on usage. The other options, such as subscription, perpetual, and enterprise agreements, typically involve fixed payments or longer-term commitments, which do not fit the pay-as-you-go concept.
