A company wants to move a group of departmental applications into the cloud to trim capital expenses. In the proposed design, several unrelated customers will run their workloads on the same underlying servers, storage arrays, and network hardware. Which cloud characteristic BEST describes this capability?
Shared resources refer to situations in which the underlying infrastructure-compute, storage, and network hardware-is divided among multiple clients (or "tenants"). Pooling resources in this way lowers costs and improves utilization. Rapid elasticity deals with quickly scaling capacity up or down. Metered utilization is about tracking consumption and billing accordingly. File synchronization ensures data is updated across devices but does not imply sharing the underlying hardware.
