A. B.

A

Azure Cloud Shell is a browser-based shell experience to manage and develop Azure resources.

Cloud Shell offers a browser-accessible, pre-configured shell experience for managing Azure resources without the overhead of installing, versioning, and maintaining a machine yourself.

Being browser-based, Azure Cloud Shell can be run on a browser from a tablet that runs the Android operating system.

The given solution of using PowerShell in Azure Cloud Shell to create a new Azure virtual machine cannot be executed from a tablet that runs the Android operating system. Therefore, the solution does not meet the goal.

Azure Cloud Shell is a browser-based shell environment that provides command-line tools for managing Azure resources. It can be accessed from any device that has a web browser and an internet connection, including tablets that run the Android operating system. However, PowerShell is a command-line shell and scripting language that is designed for Windows-based operating systems. Therefore, it cannot be used natively on an Android tablet.

There are several alternative solutions that can be used to create a new Azure virtual machine from an Android tablet. One possible solution is to use the Azure portal mobile app, which provides a mobile-optimized interface for managing Azure resources. Another possible solution is to use a third-party remote desktop app to connect to a Windows-based device that has PowerShell installed and use it to create the virtual machine.

The correct answer is B. vertical scaling.

Vertical scaling, also known as scaling up, is the process of increasing the computing capacity of a single virtual machine (VM) by adding more memory or CPUs. This is done by upgrading the VM to a larger size within the same family or by adding more resources, such as adding more RAM or increasing the CPU count.

Agility refers to the ability to quickly and efficiently respond to changing business needs, such as scaling up or down the resources in response to demand.

Horizontal scaling, also known as scaling out, refers to the process of adding more virtual machines to a resource pool to distribute the workload and increase capacity.

Elasticity is the ability of a system to automatically provision and deprovision resources based on demand, ensuring that the system can scale up or down quickly and efficiently without human intervention.

Therefore, in the context of the question, vertical scaling is the correct term to represent the ability to increase the computing capacity of a virtual machine by adding memory or CPUs.
