A company wants its employees to have access to virtual desktop infrastructure to securely access company-provided desktops through the employees' personal devices. Which AWS service should the company use to meet these requirements?
"While the two AWS services are somewhat similar, it’s important to remember that Amazon AppStream 2.0 is focused on hosting individual applications on AWS, while Amazon WorkSpaces creates virtual desktops that can be used to create entire working environments for you and your team."

Amazon AppStream 2.0 is focused on hosting individual applications on AWS, while Amazon WorkSpaces creates virtual desktops that can be used to create entire working environments for you and your team.
The bottom line is that if you’re looking to move your existing legacy applications to AWS, you’ll want to look at Amazon AppStream 2.0 in more detail, and if you’re just looking for a quick and easy way to deploy Windows virtual desktops for your users, Amazon WorkSpaces is most likely an ideal solution
To meet the requirement of providing employees with access to virtual desktop infrastructure securely, the company should use Amazon WorkSpaces. Amazon WorkSpaces is a fully managed desktop-as-a-service (DaaS) solution that allows users to access their desktops and applications securely from any supported device, including personal devices, such as laptops, tablets, or smartphones.
Amazon WorkSpaces provides a persistent, cloud-based desktop experience for end users, and it allows administrators to manage users, applications, and policies centrally. It offers the flexibility to scale up or down the number of desktops as needed, making it a suitable solution for remote workforces or companies looking for a cost-effective, secure, and scalable virtual desktop infrastructure.
D is the correct answer
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/workspaces/latest/adminguide/amazon-workspaces.html
"Amazon WorkSpaces enables you to provision virtual, cloud-based Microsoft Windows, Amazon Linux, or Ubuntu Linux desktops for your users, known as WorkSpaces. WorkSpaces eliminates the need to procure and deploy hardware or install complex software. You can quickly add or remove users as your needs change. Users can access their virtual desktops from multiple devices or web browsers."
Vote for A - AppStream 2.0 is a fully managed application streaming service that provides users instant access to their desktop applications from anywhere
Amazon AppStream 2.0 allows you to stream desktop applications from the cloud to any device, but it is more focused on application streaming rather than full virtual desktops. So the correct answer is C. Amazon WorkSpaces.
Amazon WorkSpaces - Secure, reliable, and scalable access to persistent desktops from any location.
Amazon AppStream 2.0 - Secure, reliable, and scalable access to applications and non-persistent desktops from any location.
I go with: D
