Public cloud providers own and maintain the physical infrastructure, so customers do not have to purchase servers, storage devices, or networking hardware up front. This removes large capital expenditures (CapEx) and replaces them with pay-as-you-go operational expenses (OpEx).
The other choices can reduce certain costs, but they are either still required (e.g., software subscriptions) or are secondary savings (e.g., power, cooling, or accounting treatments)-they are not the most significant financial advantage.
