CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ (CLO-002) — Question 86

Which of the following can be used by a client's finance department to identify the cost of cloud use in a public cloud environment shared by different projects and departments?

Answer options

• A. Reserved instances
• B. Service level agreement
• C. Resource tagging
• D. RFI from the CSP

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Resource tagging allows for the allocation of costs to specific projects or departments, making it easier to track expenses in a shared public cloud environment. Reserved instances, service level agreements, and requests for information (RFI) do not provide the granularity needed to identify costs by project or department.
