Explanation

Cloud computing's elastic, pay-as-you-go model directly solves the problem of over- or under-provisioning during traffic peaks. Resources can be scaled up automatically during high-traffic events and scaled back down afterward, so the retailer only pays for what is actually consumed. Option B is incorrect because OpEx predictability is reduced (not increased) with variable workloads. Option C is false - storage capacity does not prevent downtime caused by compute bottlenecks. Option D is incorrect because shared responsibility relates to security duties, not traffic visibility.
