Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which cloud computing feature allows for serverconsolidation resulting in increased asset utilizationand decreased data center energy needs?
A
Automation
B
Governance
C
Provisioning
D
Virtualization
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Virtualization technology enables different virtual servers to share one physical server. This process is called server consolidation and is commonly used to increase hardware utilization, load balancing, and optimization of available IT resources.

Detailed explanation-2: -A hypervisor, also called a virtual machine monitor (VMM), is a software program that runs on an actual host hardware platform and supervises the execution of the guest operating systems on the virtual machines.

Detailed explanation-3: -Elasticity is a feature of cloud computing that involves dynamically provisioning (or deprovisioning) resources as needed.

Detailed explanation-4: -Virtual machine (VM) consolidation utilizes live migration of virtual machines (VMs) to transfer a VM among physical servers in order to improve the utilization of resources and energy efficiency in cloud data centers.
