Incorrect Answers
This alternative, Migrate eligible tasks to ECS with Fargate launch type, is appropriate when A containerized API already has an ECS task definition and team wants to stop managing node instances. Fargate removes host provisioning while retaining ECS task and service concepts.
For the separate situation A legacy application has a tightly coupled OS service and requires privileged host-level changes, Keep it on managed EC2 instances until those OS dependencies can be removed could be useful. EC2 retains operating-system control unavailable in fully managed serverless services.
Although Move the handler to Lambda after validating runtime and request constraints can be valid when A migrated HTTP handler is stateless, runs for seconds and has unpredictable demand, it targets a different technical condition. Lambda handles short on-demand work without persistent server capacity.
