What this domain covers
Example question from this domain
A startup wants to avoid buying servers before it knows whether an application will attract users. It prefers to pay only for the cloud resources it consumes. Which pricing concept is this?
- Consumption-based pricing
- Fixed hardware depreciation
- Upfront data center leasing
- Permanent overprovisioning
Consumption-based pricing — Consumption-based pricing means costs are tied to actual resource usage instead of large fixed upfront purchases.
Fixed hardware depreciation — Hardware depreciation applies to owned capital assets and does not describe paying for only consumed cloud resources.
Upfront data center leasing — Leasing a data center creates fixed commitments that the scenario is trying to avoid.
Permanent overprovisioning — Permanent overprovisioning wastes capacity and does not match pay-as-you-use economics.
