Explanation
Amazon QuickSight has native, built-in ML-powered forecasting as a first-class feature - you can add a forecasting insight directly to a visual with a few clicks, no external model required. Option C leverages this capability with the least operational overhead and cost. Option A mentions a 'custom field,' which is not the right mechanism for forecasting in QuickSight. Option B proposes building a custom D3.js dashboard, which requires significant development and maintenance effort - not cost-effective. Option D involves training and hosting an Amazon SageMaker model solely for forecasting, which is overkill when QuickSight already includes ML forecasting natively, and it introduces unnecessary cost and complexity.
