Practitioner Timed Mode Set 2 Q62

Hello Ankit,
Thank you for your feedback! I understand the confusion, so let’s clarify the criteria for what constitutes a serverless service in AWS.
Amazon OpenSearch Service provides managed capabilities, including hardware provisioning, software patching, and backups. However, it does not strictly qualify as a serverless service. In serverless services like AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway, all server management is abstracted away. This means no infrastructure provisioning or management is needed, and the service automatically handles scaling, availability, and fault tolerance.
In contrast, with Amazon OpenSearch Service, users still need to choose and manage the underlying instance types and storage options, even if the service itself is managed. This means it does not fully remove the need for server provisioning and maintenance.
Therefore, the correct answers remain Lambda@Edge and Amazon API Gateway, as these services fully encapsulate the serverless model by abstracting all aspects of infrastructure management from the user.
For more readings, please refer to this official document about Amazon OpenSearch: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/opensearch-service/latest/developerguide/what-is.html
I hope this helps clarify why Amazon OpenSearch is not considered serverless in this context. If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask!
