Which of the following concepts does this describe?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

The concept describes the execution of tasks and processing of operations without the need for manual intervention, which aligns with automation. Automation refers to using technology to perform tasks that would otherwise require human intervention, ensuring that complex and distributed operations are handled programmatically. Orchestration, while involved in coordinating these tasks, typically implies a broader management of various automated processes, whereas the question emphasizes performing activities programmatically.

Orchestration refers to the process of coordinating and managing complex, distributed operations in a cloud environment programmatically. It involves automating workflows that integrate multiple cloud services, ensuring that tasks such as provisioning, scaling, and configuration are executed seamlessly without manual intervention. Why Not the Others? B. Provisioning → Refers to the process of allocating and deploying resources (e.g., VMs, storage), but it is just one part of orchestration. C. Automation → Automation focuses on individual tasks, while orchestration manages multiple automated processes together. D. Allocation → Deals with distributing resources but does not handle workflow execution like orchestration.
