Does this challenge push customers to consumption-based IT? Solution: The need to create strict guidelines for using AI-based applications on the company network.

• BNo

• B

Explanation

B is correct because creating strict guidelines for AI-based application usage on a company network is a security and governance policy challenge, not a driver toward consumption-based IT. Consumption-based IT (pay-as-you-go infrastructure) is typically driven by needs like unpredictable workloads, rapid scalability demands, or reducing capital expenditure - none of which are addressed by application usage policies.

Why A is wrong: Enforcing network usage guidelines doesn't require or incentivize shifting from fixed, owned infrastructure to a variable, usage-metered model. It's a compliance concern, not a capacity or cost-flexibility concern.

Memory tip: Think "consumption-based = how much you use IT resources (scaling, billing)." This challenge is about whether employees can use certain apps - that's a policy/security question, not an infrastructure consumption question. If the scenario involves unpredictable demand or paying only for what you use, that points to consumption-based IT; governance rules do not.
