Consider this AWS Lambda usage scenario: You run a function that processes 1000 requests in a minute. How does serverless pricing affect your cost?
AYou pay a flat fee for unlimited requests per month.
BYou pay for the maximum number of concurrent requests allowed.
CYou pay only for the compute time used during those 1000 requests.
DYou pay for the total number of servers running your function.
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Understand serverless pricing model

    Serverless charges based on actual compute time and number of requests.

  2. Step 2: Apply to scenario

    For 1000 requests, you pay only for the compute time those requests consume, not fixed fees or server counts.

  3. Final Answer:

    You pay only for the compute time used during those 1000 requests. -> Option C

  4. Quick Check:

    Serverless pricing = pay per use [OK]
Quick Trick: Serverless charges only for actual compute time used [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming flat monthly fees
  • Thinking payment depends on server count
  • Confusing concurrency limits with billing
