Which AWS service provides serverless compute capabilities?

  1. Amazon EC2

  2. AWS Lambda

  3. Amazon ECS

  4. AWS Fargate

The correct answer is: AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda provides serverless compute capabilities, meaning you do not have to manage servers or infrastructure in order to run your code. Option A, Amazon EC2, is incorrect because this service requires you to provision and manage your own servers. Option C, Amazon ECS, and Option D, AWS Fargate, are incorrect because they are container orchestration services, which still require you to manage underlying servers. Therefore, they are not considered serverless compute services like AWS Lambda.
