I remember practicing a question about HR plans, and I feel like the HR Staffing Plan could also fit, but it seems more focused on hiring.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by all the different cloud components and monitoring systems. I'll need to carefully read through the details to make sure I understand how they're all connected.
