AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 297

A company has an application with robust hardware requirements. The application must be accessed by students who are using lightweight, low-cost laptops.

Which AWS service will help the company deploy the application without investing in backend infrastructure or high-end client hardware?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Amazon AppStream 2.0 is a fully managed application streaming service that enables users to run resource-intensive desktop applications on low-power client devices through a web browser. AWS Elastic Beanstalk is used for deploying and scaling web applications, while AWS AppSync is a serverless GraphQL and Pub/Sub API service, neither of which support application streaming. Amazon WorkLink is designed for securing mobile access to internal web portals rather than streaming demanding desktop software.
