CompTIA A+ 220-1101 Question # 92 Topic 12 Discussion

Metered utilization for cloud computing is a pricing model where cloud service providers charge clients based on the amount of resources they consume, such as network bandwidth, storage space, CPU cycles, or memory. This allows clients to pay only for what they use, rather than a fixed amount or a subscription fee. Metered utilization can also enable clients to scale their cloud resources up or down according to their needs and demand.
