Where do non-serverless compute resources exist?

Non-serverless compute resources exist within the customer's AWS, Azure, or GCP environment because they rely on specific infrastructure configurations set up by the customer. In these environments, users can deploy clusters and run workloads on dedicated virtual machines or instances, thus managing the underlying resources. This configuration allows for more control over resource allocation, performance tuning, and the ability to scale according to the specific needs of the organization.

The other scenarios present elements that are less applicable to the nature of non-serverless compute resources. For instance, while Databricks operates in cloud environments, non-serverless resources specifically refer to configurations that are tied to customer-managed infrastructures rather than solely existing within a Databricks cloud account. On-premises data centers are typically associated with traditional IT settings rather than cloud-based resources. Finally, external cloud providers pertain to services that may be utilized but do not specifically define the deployment of non-serverless compute resources, which are inherently tied to the customer's own environment and management structure.
