Answer: C

Explanation:

A High Concurrency cluster is a managed cloud resource. The key benefits of High Concurrency clusters are that they provide fine-grained sharing for maximum resource utilization and minimum query latencies.

Databricks chooses the appropriate number of workers required to run your job. This is referred to as autoscaling. Autoscaling makes it easier to achieve high cluster utilization, because you don’t need to provision the cluster to match a workload.
