Explanation
Elasticity refers to the ability to automatically scale resources up or down based on demand. For an e-commerce website anticipating a spike in transactions during the holidays, elasticity in the public cloud allows the company to quickly and dynamically increase computing resources (such as servers or storage) to handle the surge in traffic, and then scale down after the peak period. This ensures that the website remains responsive and cost-efficient, without over-provisioning resources year-round.
