Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 477

Which of the following represents a prioritization of applications or cloud customers for the allocation of additional requested resources when there is a limitation on available resources?

Answer options

• A. Provision
• B. Limit
• C. Reservation
• D. Share

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as a reservation specifically indicates a priority system for allocating additional resources when needed. Options A and D do not imply prioritization, as 'Provision' refers to the act of supplying resources, while 'Share' denotes distributing resources among users. Option B, 'Limit,' simply refers to a cap on resources and does not address prioritization at all.
