- A
AWS IoT Core
- B
Amazon EC2
- C
Amazon QuickSight
- D
AWS Lambda
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
AWS IoT Core is the best choice for managing IoT devices because it is specifically designed to handle secure device communication, data collection, and integration with other AWS services at scale. Other services like EC2, QuickSight, and Lambda serve different purposes and do not provide the necessary features for IoT device management.
- A. Correct.
AWS IoT Core is designed to securely connect IoT devices and manage their data at scale. It provides features such as device communication, authentication, and integration with other AWS services.
- B. Incorrect.
Amazon EC2 is a compute service that allows users to run virtual servers, but it is not specialized for managing IoT devices.
- C. Incorrect.
Amazon QuickSight is a business intelligence service used for data visualization and reporting, not for IoT device management.
- D. Incorrect.
AWS Lambda is a serverless compute service that can process events, but it is not designed to directly manage IoT devices.
