Hmm, the hypervisor, huh? Well, I guess the cloud admins want to keep their job security by keeping that one off-limits. Can't have the users messing with the magic behind the curtain, can we?

Service? Nah, that's gotta be the one. I mean, who limits the service in a cloud environment? That's like putting a cap on the number of cups of coffee you can have in a day - it just doesn't make sense.

Virtual machine? No way, that's the whole point of the cloud, right? Limiting VMs would be like limiting the number of laps in a race car - completely missing the point.

Because services are not typically covered by resource limits in a cloud environment.

Ah, the good old 'what doesn't belong' question. This one's a piece of cake - it's gotta be the hypervisor. That's like the backbone of the cloud, you can't just go around limiting that!

Hypervisor? Really? I think that's a pretty fundamental part of the cloud infrastructure that shouldn't be limited. Maybe they should throw in 'the kitchen sink' as an option too, just to make it more challenging.
