MS-900 Fundamentals 2.1 | Unclear question in article, "Timely" and "Interactive"

I’m unsure what the question means by “Interactive” and “Timely” in these options. The terms aren’t used at all in the article from what I could see in a few reads, and I think they’re a bit too ambiguous to intuit.

Is interactive, like, you can interact with it? Isn’t that true of any system you have access to?
I assume timely is “time it takes to spool a new container/image/server”, but couldn’t that also be just as fast on a private server (or even faster if you dont have to upload the image first)? It would be faster to buy a cloud service than it would be to buy and set up a private server, so in that sense its timely. Unless its talking about latency to the cloud which would skyrocket compared to something on your LAN/WAN, and would more than likely tank your bandwidth.

idk

Also as a another nitpick, I think the “one of” in “identify one of the benefits” is confusing to have on a “select all that apply” style question. Happy Monday <3

What do you think the single best answer is in this list of possible answers, though?

Scalable for sure. The hardware and load balancing is all there already so adding more servers/capacity is just a matter of paying for it. Plus there’s cloud services that operate globally and can put your data/services in places that make it easier for anyone near any of the major hubs to access.

||the answer was everything checked except for “timely” which just added more confusion to what it means||
