When evaluating cloud adoption, a company cites faster feature experimentation and the desire to avoid purchasing hardware for occasional traffic spikes. Which inherent property of public cloud most directly addresses these two goals?
Guarantee that all workloads remain in a single Google Cloud region to minimize network latency.
Reliance on proprietary hardware that cannot be repurposed for other workloads, ensuring optimized performance.
Ability to provision and release computing resources on demand, scaling automatically with usage and billing only for what is consumed.
Requirement to purchase and maintain enough physical servers to handle peak traffic throughout the year.
Public cloud offers on-demand self-service and rapid scalability (elasticity). Teams can spin up resources instantly to test new ideas and automatically scale them up or down with use, paying only for actual consumption. The other options describe traditional CapEx approaches, limited regional deployment, or proprietary lock-in, none of which deliver the same agility or cost flexibility.
