Explanation

{"question_number": 7, "correct_answer": "B", "explanation": "The CALMS framework (Culture, Automation, Lean, Measurement, Sharing) is the foundation of DevOps adoption. The described scenario-increased overhead and difficulty completing releases on time-points to a Lean problem. Lean focuses on eliminating waste, reducing unnecessary steps, and optimizing the flow of work through the delivery pipeline. When a DevOps team struggles with overhead and slow release cycles, it means their processes contain waste (unnecessary handoffs, wait times, or rework) that Lean principles are designed to eliminate. Collaboration is about people working together (already occurring); Measurement is about metrics; Sharing is about disseminating knowledge across teams.", "generated_by": "claude-sonnet", "llm_judge_score": 4}
