Dell EMC Associate – PowerStore Solutions — Question 51
An organization has a need to provide additional infrastructure resources at various times throughout the year. But they do not want to use these additional resources unless they are needed. The organization is considering a cloud deployment.
What cloud characteristic directly addresses this need?
Answer options
- A. Rapid Elasticity
- B. IaaS
- C. On-demand Self-service
- D. Hybrid cloud
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Rapid Elasticity allows an organization to scale resources up or down based on demand, making it ideal for fluctuating resource needs. IaaS provides infrastructure as a service but does not specifically address the scaling aspect. On-demand Self-service enables users to provision resources as necessary, but it does not inherently include the automatic scaling feature. Hybrid cloud refers to a mix of on-premises and cloud resources, which does not directly relate to the need for elasticity.
