Which of the following AWS services are serverless? (Select TWO.)
A
AWS Outposts
B
Amazon EC2
C
Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)
D
AWS Fargate
E
AWS Lambda
Explanation:
AWS Fargate and AWS Lambda are serverless services:
AWS Fargate: A serverless compute engine for containers that works with both Amazon ECS and Amazon EKS. You don't need to provision or manage servers - AWS manages the underlying infrastructure.
AWS Lambda: A serverless compute service that runs your code in response to events and automatically manages the underlying compute resources.
Why the other options are NOT serverless:
AWS Outposts: Brings AWS infrastructure and services to your on-premises data center - requires you to manage physical infrastructure
Amazon EC2: Requires provisioning and managing virtual servers (instances)
Amazon EKS: While EKS can use Fargate for serverless operation, EKS itself typically requires managing Kubernetes control plane and worker nodes
Serverless services eliminate infrastructure management and automatically scale based on demand.
