Zorluk: OrtaHigh Availability, Scalability, and Elasticity

A logistics company utilizes an Azure-based package tracking application. During a localized storm, tracking requests spike unpredictably. The underlying Azure infrastructure automatically allocates additional virtual machine instances to handle the load and deallocates them as soon as request volume returns to normal. Is this automatic allocation and deallocation of resources in response to immediate, fluctuating demand known as high availability?

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False
The statement is false because the capability to automatically and dynamically scale resources up/out and down/in to match demand is defined as elasticity, whereas high availability ensures the application remains online and accessible through redundancy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the scenario details.
The scenario describes the system automatically adding virtual machines during peak demand and removing them when demand drops.
To identify the cloud concept related to dynamic resource scaling.
2
Define high availability and elasticity.
Elasticity is the automatic scaling of resources to meet demand. High availability is maintaining service uptime and accessibility despite failures.
To compare the behavior described in the scenario with official cloud concepts.
3
Evaluate the statement.
Since the scenario describes elasticity but asks if it is high availability, the statement is false.
To determine the final true/false answer.
