A research institution uses AWS Organizations to manage multiple AWS accounts for various departments. To optimize costs, the finance team wants to implement consolidated billing to aggregate Amazon S3 storage usage across all accounts. Which of the following describes how AWS determines S3 pricing for this organization?
- AThe management account administrator must configure Service Control Policies (SCPs) to distribute the S3 volume tier discounts to specific member accounts
- BConsolidating the accounts shifts the ongoing variable costs of S3 storage from an operating expense (OpEx) to an upfront capital expense (CapEx)
- AWS aggregates the S3 storage usage of all accounts in the organization to compute volume pricing tier discounts on the consolidated billCevap
- DThe credentials of the management account's root user must be used to access the S3 buckets in the member accounts to verify the aggregated usage
Cevap
AWS aggregates the S3 storage usage of all accounts in the organization to compute volume pricing tier discounts on the consolidated bill.
Under consolidated billing, AWS aggregates the S3 storage usage of all member accounts in the organization, treating them as a single account for the purpose of volume pricing tiers. This allows the organization to reach higher discount tiers faster than individual accounts could on their own.
