• D

Explanation

Capacity management (C) is correct because it focuses on planning and acquiring the right amount of infrastructure resources to meet current and future demand - including strategies like modular or incremental purchasing that let data center managers scale up quickly without large upfront commitments.

Change management (A) governs how modifications to existing systems are approved and implemented - it's about controlling risk during transitions, not resource acquisition planning. Incident management (B) deals with detecting, responding to, and resolving outages or failures after they occur - reactive by nature, not concerned with procurement timelines. Availability management (D) focuses on ensuring systems meet agreed uptime targets, not on how or when physical resources are purchased.

Memory tip: Think of Capacity = Can we keep up with growth? Whenever a question involves how much to buy, when to buy it, or scaling resources to meet demand, that's a capacity management concern.
