300-910 · Question #113
What is a benefit of infrastructure as code regarding speed and simplicity of deployments?
The correct answer is B. spinning up all the architecture with one script. A primary speed and simplicity benefit of IaC is the ability to provision an entire environment's architecture by executing a single script rather than performing manual, step-by-step provisioning.

Why each option
A primary speed and simplicity benefit of IaC is the ability to provision an entire environment's architecture by executing a single script rather than performing manual, step-by-step provisioning.
Utilization of virtual server platforms is a cloud computing concept, not a specific IaC benefit related to deployment speed or simplicity.
IaC tools such as Terraform or Ansible allow engineers to define all required resources in a single template or playbook and provision an entire stack with one command, eliminating repetitive manual steps and dramatically reducing deployment time and human error.
Supporting different infrastructure environments per cloud region is a multi-region design concern, not a core IaC benefit for speed and simplicity.
Using independent scripts per environment introduces inconsistency and maintenance overhead, which is contrary to the IaC goal of unified, repeatable deployments.
