Which benefit of the AWS Cloud describes these abilities?
Reliability
Economy of scale
Elasticity
Pay-as-you-go pricing
Explanations:
Reliability refers to the ability of a system to consistently perform its intended function without failure. While AWS is reliable, this option does not specifically address the user’s need for scaling resources quickly.
Economy of scale refers to the cost advantages that enterprises obtain due to their scale of operation, with cost per unit of output generally decreasing with increasing scale. This concept does not directly relate to the user’s requirement for accessing resources and scaling rapidly.
Elasticity describes the ability to quickly scale resources up or down as needed, accommodating varying workloads and demand with minimal notice. This directly matches the user’s requirement for flexible resource access and rapid scaling.
Pay-as-you-go pricing is a billing model where users pay only for the resources they consume, but it does not inherently provide the capability to scale resources quickly. It focuses more on cost management rather than the scaling capability itself.
