  2. BAmazon Comprehend
  3. CAmazon SageMaker
  4. DAWS DeepLens
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A. Amazon Rekognition

Amazon Rekognition is a fully managed service that provides pre-trained computer vision capabilities, including object and scene detection, without requiring any machine learning expertise or model training.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Amazon Comprehend is a natural language processing (NLP) service, not a computer vision service for image analysis.
  • C. Amazon SageMaker is a machine learning service for building, training, and deploying custom models, which goes against the requirement for pre-trained capabilities and limited ML expertise.
  • D. AWS DeepLens is a video camera with deep learning capabilities, primarily used for hands-on deep learning development, not a general-purpose image analysis service.

Amazon Rekognition

A fully managed AWS service that provides pre-trained computer vision capabilities to analyze images and videos.
