Common mistakes.
- B. Per-seat licensing is a traditional on-premises software model tied to the number of installed software copies, not applicable to cloud resource consumption.
- C. Per-user pricing is common for SaaS applications but is not how cloud database infrastructure is typically metered, since databases serve data irrespective of how many users access them.
- D. Per-device licensing is a legacy endpoint software model and has no relevance to cloud-hosted database services.
