CompTIA Cloud+ (CV1-003) — Question 21

A company developed a product using a cloud provider's PaaS platform and many of the platform-based components within the application environment.
Which of the following would the company MOST likely be concerned about when utilizing a multicloud strategy or migrating to another cloud provider?

Answer options

• A. Licensing
• B. Authentication providers
• C. Service-level agreement
• D. Vendor lock-in

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as the service-level agreement (SLA) defines the expected service performance and reliability, which is crucial when considering a multicloud strategy. While licensing, authentication providers, and vendor lock-in are important, they are secondary concerns compared to ensuring that the service levels meet the business requirements when migrating to another provider.
