• C
  6% (3)
• D

Explanation

IAM Users in Dell EMC ECS are defined at the system level rather than being tied to a specific namespace, which allows them to be granted access to objects across multiple namespaces - making them the correct choice for a user needing to work in both the Development and Sales namespaces.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A. Namespace Administrator - scoped to administering a single namespace; cannot span across namespaces.
• C. Object User - an object-level user bound to a specific namespace and cannot cross namespace boundaries.
• D. Management User - a system-level admin role focused on managing the ECS platform itself, not for accessing object data across namespaces.

Memory tip: Think of IAM as "I Access Many" - IAM Users exist above the namespace layer, so they're the only user type that can reach into multiple namespaces without being restricted to just one.
