How can the company meet this requirement in the AWS Cloud?
Launch an Amazon EC2 instance with default tenancy.
Launch an Amazon EC2 instance on a Dedicated Host.
Create an On-Demand Capacity Reservation.
Purchase Dedicated Reserved Instances.
Explanations:
Launching an Amazon EC2 instance with default tenancy places the instance on shared hardware, which does not provide control over the physical cores or meet licensing requirements based on physical cores.
Launching an Amazon EC2 instance on a Dedicated Host allows the company to have dedicated physical servers. This means they can control the physical cores and ensure compliance with the licensing model that requires licensing physical cores.
Creating an On-Demand Capacity Reservation allows for the reservation of capacity but does not guarantee that the instance will run on dedicated hardware, and it does not ensure compliance with licensing based on physical cores.
Purchasing Dedicated Reserved Instances provides cost savings but does not guarantee that the instances will run on dedicated hardware, as they can still be deployed on shared hosts. This option does not meet the licensing requirement for physical cores.
