Temporary project sandboxes for a summer internship portal are still running months after the project ended and continue to accrue cloud charges. What lifecycle action is needed?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Leaving the rental car running in the lot after the trip still burns gas. When the project is over, shut the sandboxes down so the meter stops.
Full Explanation
Resource lifecycle includes timely teardown of temporary and unused environments to control cost and reduce attack surface. Sandboxes left running after project completion are classic orphaned spend. Expanding them, promoting them silently to production, or hiding cost attribution worsens the problem.
