A team needs to run a containerised microservice without managing the underlying EC2 instances themselves. Which combination of AWS services lets them do that?

AAmazon S3 buckets with versioning enabled
BAmazon RDS with a Multi-AZ deployment
CAmazon ECS or Amazon EKS, with AWS Fargate as the launch type
DAmazon EC2 with Reserved Instances and manual Docker installs
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Amazon ECS or Amazon EKS, with AWS Fargate as the launch type
ECS (AWS's container orchestrator) and EKS (managed Kubernetes) both support a Fargate launch type — AWS provisions and manages the underlying compute so the team only thinks about containers. EC2 with manual Docker is the opposite — full server management. S3 and RDS aren't container services.
