   A startup's development team frequently needs temporary Linux virtual machines for testing.

The team wants to reduce the time between requesting a test environment and actually using it. Which cloud characteristic, when properly leveraged, most directly addresses this requirement?

   • ABroad network access, enabling developers to reach the VMs from any location
   • BMeasured service, which meters VM usage and provides detailed billing reports to the development team
   • COn-demand self-service, allowing developers to provision VMs through a portal or API without administrator intervention
   • DResource pooling, which allows the provider to share physical hardware among multiple tenants
