Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

AWS CloudFormation is an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) service that enables users to model, provision, and manage AWS resources using templates, ensuring highly repeatable infrastructure deployments. AWS CodeDeploy and AWS CodeBuild are developer tools used for automating software deployments and compiling source code, respectively. AWS Systems Manager is an operational service for configuring and managing AWS and on-premises resources, rather than provisioning core infrastructure.
