AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 294

Which fully managed AWS service assists with the creation, testing, and management of custom Amazon EC2 images?

Answer options

• A. EC2 Image Builder
• B. Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
• C. AWS Launch Wizard
• D. AWS Elastic Beanstalk

Correct answer: A

Explanation

EC2 Image Builder is a fully managed AWS service specifically designed to automate the creation, testing, and maintenance of secure, customized server images. An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) is the resulting image artifact itself rather than a creation service, whereas AWS Launch Wizard and AWS Elastic Beanstalk are deployment and hosting tools that do not specialize in image pipeline management.
