What is Amazon EC2?
Amazon EC2 is a cloud service that allows users to create and use virtual machines in the Amazon website. EC2 provides a flexible and scalable working environment for running applications in the cloud. EC2 instances can be scaled up and down as needed and users pay only for the instances they use. EC2 instances can also run in different geographic regions to improve availability and redundancy. EC2 instances are virtual machines that run on Amazon hardware. EC2 instances can be configured with different operating systems, network configurations, and software configurations. EC2 instances are also scalable, so users can increase or decrease the resources they use as needed. EC2 is one of the most popular cloud services on the market and offers a high degree of flexibility and scalability. EC2 instances can run in all Amazon regions and are also compatible with other Amazon services such as S3 and EBS.
