AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 148

Which of the following are characteristics of a serverless application that runs in the AWS Cloud? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Users must manually configure Amazon EC2 instances.
• B. Users have a choice of operating systems.
• C. The application has built-in fault tolerance.
• D. Users can run Amazon EC2 Spot Instances.
• E. The application can scale based on demand.

Correct answer: C, E

Explanation

The correct answers, C and E, highlight that serverless applications inherently include fault tolerance and can automatically scale based on user demand. The other options, such as A and D, refer to traditional EC2 usage rather than serverless architecture, while B incorrectly suggests that users choose operating systems, which is not applicable in a serverless environment.
