An administrator needs to monitor cloud spend for a new development project. The administrator wants to receive an email notification when the project's monthly spending reaches $900. Additionally, the administrator needs to generate cost reports in Azure Cost Management that are filtered by the individual developer responsible for each resource. Which configuration should the administrator implement to meet these requirements?
- AConfigure an Azure Policy to deny resource deployment when spending reaches $900, and apply a custom tag containing the developer's name to the containing resource group.
- BCreate a ReadOnly resource lock on the resource group to prevent billing changes, and use Azure Advisor to group the monthly cost analysis by developer.
- Configure a budget in Azure Cost Management with an alert threshold set to 90% of a $1,000 budget, and apply a custom tag containing the developer's name directly to each resource.Answer
- DConfigure a budget in Azure Cost Management, and classify the resource costs as Capital Expenditure (CapEx) within the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Calculator.
Answer
Configure a budget in Azure Cost Management with an alert threshold set to 90% of a $1,000 budget, and apply a custom tag containing the developer's name directly to each resource.
To receive an email notification when spending reaches 1,000 budget). To view cost reports filtered by individual developers, custom tags containing the developer's name must be applied directly to each resource because tags do not inherit from parent resource groups or subscriptions.
Step-by-Step Solution
Key Concept
Azure Cost Management budgets track spending and generate notifications when thresholds are crossed, while resource tags are used to categorize and filter cost reports, requiring direct application to resources due to a lack of inheritance.
