A company is creating a document that defines the operating system patch routine for all the company's systems. Which AWS resources should the company include in this document? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. Amazon EC2 instances D. Amazon RDS instances. EC2 instances (including ECS when using the EC2 launch type) expose the underlying operating system to the customer, so the customer must define and apply patching. Managed services like Lambda, Fargate, and RDS handle the OS layer for you.
