What is AWS EC2?
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud or AWS EC2 is a service offered by Amazon that allows customers to rent servers on which they can run their own applications. EC2 enables scalable deployment of applications by providing a web-based interface through which the customer can create, launch and stop server instances as needed, and pays based on server usage.
