Certified Cloud Security Professional – CCSP – Question352

Having a reservation in a cloud environment can ensure operations continue in the event of high utilization across the cloud.
Which of the following would NOT be a capability covered by reservations?

A. Performing business operations
B. Starting virtual machines
C. Running applications
D. Auto-scaling

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

Explanation: A reservation will not guarantee auto-scaling is available because it involves the allocation of additional resources beyond what a cloud customer already has provisioned. Reservations will guarantee minimal resources are available to start virtual machines, run applications, and perform normal business operations.
