Explanation
Capacity management's primary objective is ensuring IT resources can meet current and future business demand - so in a blockchain context, this means guaranteeing the network can process transaction volumes and store data at the scale the business requires (D).
Why the distractors fail:
- A (energy monitoring) is an operational concern, not a capacity objective - it tracks costs, not throughput or availability.
- B (developing new applications) belongs to demand management or IT strategy, not capacity management.
- C (expanding resources independent of business growth) directly contradicts capacity management's core principle, which is aligning resources with business need, not in isolation from it.
Memory tip: Capacity management = "right resource, right time, right size." Whenever you see it in a question, anchor your answer to matching supply with demand - in blockchain or any other technology context.
