An administrator needs to compare the cost of running workloads hosted with two different custom cloud providers. Which step should the administrator take?

Question

Options

• AAdd custom Cloud Providers as Cloud Accounts.
• BInput prices manually when running a What-If Analysis.
• CCreate two new Pricing Cards.
• DAdd two custom Cloud Providers.

• A
  10% (3)
• B
  3% (1)
• C
  83% (24)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

Pricing Cards are the correct tool because they allow administrators to define and assign custom cost structures (pricing models, rates, and currencies) to specific workloads or providers, making direct cost comparisons possible between two distinct environments.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A - Adding custom Cloud Providers as Cloud Accounts is about onboarding providers for monitoring/management, not configuring pricing for cost comparisons.
• B - What-If Analysis is used for modeling future scenarios (e.g., "what if I moved this workload?"), not for setting up a side-by-side cost baseline between two live providers.
• D - Simply adding custom Cloud Providers registers them in the system but does not attach any pricing data needed for cost comparison.

Memory tip: Think of Pricing Cards like price tags you pin to each provider - you need two separate price tags (one per provider) before you can compare what each one costs you.
