Selected Answer: C
Jobs clusters, on the other hand, are designed specifically for running production jobs. They are ephemeral, meaning they are created when a job starts and terminated when the job completes. This makes them more cost-effective for scheduled jobs, as they do not incur costs when not in use.

Selected Answer: C
Jobs clusters are specifically designed to run scheduled jobs in a production environment. They are ephemeral, meaning they are created when a job starts and terminated once the job finishes. This makes them cost-efficient and optimized for batch processing.
