23. What AWS benefit refers to a customer's ability to deploy applications that scale up and down the meet variable demand?
    - A. Elasticity
    - B. Agility
    - C. Security
    - D. Scalability

    <details markdown=1><summary markdown="span">Answer</summary>

    Correct Answer: D

    </details>

I believe the answer should be Correct Answer: A. Based on my understanding and other sources online I found the following: "Elasticity implies the capacity to rapidly scale up/down & Scalability refers the ability to handle the workload" "Elasticity in the AWS Cloud refers to the ability to quickly and easily scale resources up or down as demand shifts. It allows you to rightsize resources such as Amazon EC2 instances and Amazon RDS DB instances, to meet the needs of your applications. This means that you can automatically or manually increase or decrease the number of resources as needed, and also you can automatically or manually increase or decrease the size of resources."

This need adding as an explanation too.

@kananinirav - here is my proposal for correcting the answer.

But I think Scalability is more suitable because, without the underlying scalability of the system, elasticity wouldn’t be possible.
