Which of the following cloud environments should be a concern to an organization’s cloud auditor?
A.
The cloud service provider’s data center is more than 100 miles away.
B.
The organization entirely depends on several proprietary Software as a Service (SaaS) applications.
C.
The failover region of the cloud service provider is on another continent.
D.
The technical team is trained on only one vendor Infrastructure as a Service (Iaas) platform, but the organization has subscribed to another vendor’s IaaS platform as an alternative.
B due to dedicated vendor proprietary SaaS product usage can lead to vendor lock in. Option 3 is operational issue and can be resolved through training
CCAK Pg 304: Vendor Lock-In
In economics, vendor lock-in, also known as proprietary lock-in or customer lock-in, makes a customer dependent
on a vendor for products and services, unable to use another vendor without substantial switching costs. With regard
to cloud services, vendor lock-in may be a consequence of proprietary technology, architecture or data formats
specific to a single vendor, prohibiting or significantly delaying a possible data migration to a new CSP.

My comment: Option D: team can get training, where as Option B situation is not easy to avoid.
The technical team is trained on only one vendor Infrastructure as a Service (Iaas) platform, but the organization has subscribed to another vendor’s IaaS platform as an alternative .
why not D. The technical team is trained on only one vendor Infrastructure as a Service (Iaas) platform, but the organization has subscribed to another vendor’s IaaS platform as an alternative ?
