Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A. On-demand delivery of IT resources over the internet · D. Pay-as-you-go pricing for the resources used
Why: AWS describes cloud computing as the on-demand delivery of IT resources over the internet with pay-as-you-go pricing. Multi-year hardware leases, managing physical servers yourself, and buying fixed capacity upfront are characteristics of traditional on-premises IT rather than cloud computing.
