The characteristic of cloud computing that allows users to provision computing capabilities without human interaction from the service provider is known as on-demand self-service. This feature enables users to automatically manage their computing resources, such as server time and network storage, as needed, which provides agility and flexibility in resource management.

I thought it was Agile service management at first!

I practiced a similar question last week, and I think it was about self-service capabilities too. A seems like the best choice to me!

I feel like broad network access is important, but it doesn't really fit the description of provisioning without human interaction.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about measured service being related to how resources are tracked. Could that be relevant here?

I think the answer might be A, on-demand self-service, because it sounds like what we discussed in class about provisioning resources automatically.

This is a tricky one. I feel like I've seen these cloud characteristics before, but I'm having trouble remembering the exact definitions. I'll have to read through the options carefully and try to match them up with what I know.

Okay, let me think this through. On-demand self-service sounds like the right answer, since it's the only one that specifically mentions provisioning without human interaction. I'll go with that unless I can come up with a really good reason why one of the other options might be better.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the cloud characteristics are important, but I'm not totally confident I can distinguish them all. I might have to take a closer look at the options and see if I can eliminate any.

This one seems pretty straightforward. I'm pretty sure the answer is on-demand self-service, since that's the only option that mentions provisioning without human interaction.

If I recall correctly, MaxCompute has strict permissions, so I wonder if D is accurate regarding the separate permission system.
