Explanation

The Elastic Database Client Library is the correct choice for distributed transactions across Azure SQL databases in a multi-tenant cloud scenario, as it provides elastic transactions that span multiple Azure SQL Database instances without requiring MSDTC. MSDTC (Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator) is the correct choice for on-premises SQL Server instances, as it is the traditional Windows service that coordinates distributed transactions across multiple resource managers in on-premises environments. Together, these two technologies cover both the cloud (Azure SQL) and on-premises (SQL Server) distributed transaction scenarios described in the question.
