AWS Service That Does Not Provision IT Infrastructure

Answer: A.

Option A is CORRECT.

CodePipeline is a Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery service that builds, tests & deploys code whenever there is a change in the source code.

CodePipeline does not in itself provision IT infrastructure, instead, it uses available targets like ECS, S3, Elastic Beanstalk for deploying generated artifacts.

Option B is incorrect.

AWS CloudFormation provides an easy way to model a collection of AWS resources, provision them quickly and consistently and manage them throughout their lifecycle by treating infrastructure as code.

Templates can be used to create, update, and delete an entire stack as a single unit, as often as needed.

You can manage and provision stacks across multiple AWS accounts and AWS Regions.

Option C is incorrect.

ElasticBeanstalk lets you provision resources & deploy a web application in a matter of minutes.

ElasticBeanstalk handles your hosting environment's details and allows you to define Capacity provisioning, Load balancing, scaling & application health monitoring for your applications.

Option D is incorrect since CodePipeline does not provision resources.

The correct answer is A. AWS CodePipeline does not provide the capability of provisioning IT infrastructure.

Here's a detailed explanation of each option:

A. AWS CodePipeline: AWS CodePipeline is a continuous delivery service that automates the build, test, and deploy phases of your release process for software applications. It does not provide the capability of provisioning IT infrastructure.

B. AWS CloudFormation: AWS CloudFormation is a service that helps you model and set up your Amazon Web Services resources so you can spend less time managing those resources and more time focusing on your applications that run in AWS. With AWS CloudFormation, you can use a template to describe the resources you want to provision and deploy them in a predictable and repeatable way.

C. AWS Elastic Beanstalk: AWS Elastic Beanstalk is an easy-to-use service for deploying and scaling web applications and services developed with Java, .NET, PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, and Docker on familiar servers such as Apache, Nginx, Passenger, and IIS.

D. All of them: This is an incorrect option because as mentioned above, AWS CodePipeline does not provide the capability of provisioning IT infrastructure, while AWS CloudFormation and AWS Elastic Beanstalk both provide this capability.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. AWS CodePipeline does not provide the capability of provisioning IT infrastructure.
