A. Amazon FSx for Windows File Server.
B. Amazon WorkSpaces virtual Windows desktop.
C. AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory.
D. Amazon RDS for Microsoft SQL Server.
Solution
Correct answer: B. Amazon WorkSpaces virtual Windows desktop.
According to the AWS shared responsibility model, the customer is responsible for updating and patching the operating system and applications running on Amazon WorkSpaces virtual Windows desktops.
For the other options:
A. Amazon FSx for Windows File Server - AWS is responsible for patching and updating the underlying file system and infrastructure.
C. AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory - AWS is responsible for patching and updating the directory service infrastructure.
D. Amazon RDS for Microsoft SQL Server - AWS is responsible for patching and updating the underlying database engine and infrastructure.
The key distinction is that for managed services like Amazon FSx, AWS Directory Service, and Amazon RDS, AWS takes responsibility for the underlying infrastructure and platform components. However, for Amazon WorkSpaces, the customer is responsible for managing and updating the operating system and applications running on the virtual desktops.
