Question 1 of 5
What is the primary characteristic of cloud computing that allows resources to be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort?
Answer: Elasticity
Elasticity in cloud computing allows resources to be rapidly provisioned and released based on demand, minimizing management effort. Fixed capacity and static allocation are not dynamic, and manual provisioning is not a cloud characteristic.

Which of the following are benefits of the public cloud model?
Answer: Cost efficiency/Scalability
The public cloud offers cost efficiency through pay-as-you-go pricing and scalability to adjust resources dynamically. Exclusive hardware access is a private cloud feature, and local data storage is not specific to cloud models.
