Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: C
A. The hybrid sourcing model involves a combination of in-house and outsourced IT services. It does not specifically refer to the scenario where a third party is called upon to provide IT services, so it is not the correct choice for this question.
B. The cloud sourcing model involves using cloud-based services to deliver IT services. While a third party may provide these cloud services, it does not specifically address the scenario where a third party is called upon to provide IT services, making it an incorrect choice for this question.
C. Outsourcing is the correct choice for this question as it specifically refers to the scenario where an enterprise calls upon the services of a third party to provide IT services. This model involves contracting out specific IT functions or services to external service providers.
