Which solution will meet these requirements?
Configure AWS Cost and Usage Reports to send a daily report to an Amazon S3 bucket. Create an AWS Lambda function that will evaluate spend by service and notify each team by using Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notifications. Invoke the Lambda function when a report is placed in the S3 bucket.
Configure AWS Cost and Usage Reports to send a daily report to an Amazon S3 bucket. Create a rule in Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events) to evaluate the spend by service and notify each team by using Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) when the cost threshold is exceeded.
Use AWS Budgets to create one cost budget and select each of the services in use. Specify the budget amount defined by the finance department along with the forecasted cost threshold. Enter the appropriate email recipients for the budget.
Use AWS Budgets to create a cost budget for each team, filtering by the services they own. Specify the budget amount defined by the finance department along with a forecasted cost threshold. Enter the appropriate email recipients for each budget.
Explanations:
This option would require creating an S3 bucket, Lambda function, and SNS notifications, which would incur additional costs (compute and storage costs for Lambda and S3). The solution needs to avoid additional compute, storage, or database costs.
Similar to option A, this solution uses an S3 bucket, Lambda, and SQS, which also introduces additional costs for storage (S3), compute (Lambda), and messaging (SQS). This solution doesn’t meet the requirement to avoid additional costs.
This option uses a single budget for all services, which doesn’t align with the requirement of separate budgets for each team responsible for different services. It also doesn’t specify individual notifications for each team, which could cause issues with team-specific notifications.
This option uses AWS Budgets to create individual budgets for each team, filtering by the services they own. It allows the finance department’s defined budget and forecasted thresholds. Notifications are sent by email to the appropriate recipients, and there are no additional costs for compute, storage, or database resources.
To the best of my knowledge, the answer is:
Use AWS Budgets to create a cost budget for each team, filtering by the services they own. Specify the budget amount defined by the finance department along with a forecasted cost threshold. Enter the appropriate email recipients for each budget.
In my experience, the answer is:
Use AWS Budgets to create a cost budget for each team, filtering by the services they own. Specify the budget amount defined by the finance department along with a forecasted cost threshold. Enter the appropriate email recipients for each budget.
