Which advantage of the AWS Cloud matches the company’s requirements?
Reliability
Global reach
Economies of scale
Pay-as-you-go pricing
Explanations:
Reliability refers to the ability of a system to consistently perform its intended functions without failure. While AWS offers reliable services, this does not specifically address the need for eliminating guesswork in infrastructure capacity or the desire to spend on resources as they are used.
Global reach indicates AWS’s ability to provide services across multiple geographical locations. While this is a significant advantage, it does not directly relate to the company’s requirements for dynamic resource allocation and budget control based on actual usage.
Economies of scale refer to cost advantages gained due to the scale of operation, which allows companies to spread costs over a larger volume of resources. This option does not specifically address the elimination of capacity guessing or the pay-as-you-go model the company desires.
Pay-as-you-go pricing allows companies to only pay for the resources they use, aligning with the requirement to spend only as necessary. This model helps eliminate the need for guessing infrastructure capacity because resources can be provisioned as needed, thereby optimizing costs.
