Which two options are benefits of moving the application development workload to the cloud? (Select Two)

Moving development workloads to the cloud - particularly to PaaS or managed service models - reduces control over underlying software packages and vendor selection, as the provider manages and restricts the platform stack.

Cloud platforms distribute application instances across multiple virtual machines and availability zones so that the failure of any single VM triggers automatic load redistribution or failover, maintaining application availability without manual intervention.

Cloud infrastructure abstracts workloads from physical hardware through standardized virtualization and APIs, enabling workloads to be cloned, migrated across regions, or replicated to other cloud environments with minimal effort compared to on-premises deployments.

Cloud environments do not inherently provide a more secure environment; security follows a shared responsibility model, and tenant misconfiguration is a leading cause of cloud security incidents.

High availability in the cloud is orchestrated by the cloud platform's management and scheduling layers - such as auto-scaling groups, Kubernetes, or availability sets - not by the hypervisor, which only handles compute virtualization at the host level.
