What is Amazon EC2?

  • AA service that provides resizable virtual servers in the cloud
  • BA service that runs your code without provisioning any servers
  • CA service that stores objects such as files, images, and backups
  • DA managed relational database you query with standard SQL syntax

Why this is the answer

Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) provides resizable virtual machines (instances) that you fully control. Running code with no servers is Lambda, object storage is Amazon S3, and a managed relational database is Amazon RDS.
