Explanation

Prisma Cloud Compute (PCC) comes in two deployment flavors: self-managed, where customers deploy and operate it within their own container platform (e.g., Kubernetes or OpenShift) - this is option A; and SaaS-hosted, where Palo Alto Networks manages the Compute Console as part of a Prisma Cloud Enterprise tenant - this is option D. Option B is wrong because PCC is software-based, not delivered as physical hardware. Option C is wrong because PCC is a cloud-native security platform built for containerized workloads, not a Windows desktop application.

Memory tip: Think of PCC as having two modes - "you host it" (self-managed) or "we host it" (cloud-hosted SaaS). If it doesn't fit one of those two buckets, it's a distractor.
