Why each option
Serverless computing is a cloud execution model where the cloud provider dynamically manages server provisioning, scaling, and infrastructure, allowing developers to focus solely on their code.
This describes containers (e.g., Docker), which package code and dependencies, but still run on servers that require management.
Serverless computing is a model where the cloud provider fully manages the underlying servers and infrastructure, automatically provisioning and scaling resources as needed, so developers only deploy their code functions without managing servers.
This describes virtualization (e.g., hypervisors), which abstracts hardware but still requires server management.
This describes the Internet of Things (IoT), which connects devices and sensors.
