What is AWS EC2?

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) is a web service that provides resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It allows users to rent virtual servers (instances) on Amazon's infrastructure. EC2 is commonly used for a wide range of applications, including web hosting, application servers, databases, and development/testing environments. Users can choose from a variety of instance types with different operating systems, software packages, and hardware configurations.
