Correct answers: A, C
Explanation
Answers: Generally organizations have multiple teams consuming portions of those underlying container resources and The average lifespan of a container being one day versus a typically much longer utilization time for a VM
Explanation: Managing Kubernetes clusters on just about any cloud platform is very challenging due to the complexity of how Kubernetes is deployed, how resources are consumed and the general lack of real time visibility. Secondly, all providers charge for additional resource usage so for the example the amount of bandwidth or storage API access may not be visible even with tagging.
