Zorluk: OrtaAWS Cost Monitoring, Budgeting, and Optimization Tool Analysis

An enterprise manages a multi-account AWS environment using AWS Organizations. The operations team needs to implement a cost-monitoring strategy with two primary requirements:
1. Receive proactive alerts within a few hours if there is a sudden, unexpected spike in AWS usage costs.
2. Receive an alert if the total monthly cost of resources tagged with Project: Alpha is projected to exceed a specific budget.

The strategy must minimize operational overhead. Which combination of actions should the solutions architect recommend to meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)

  1. Create an AWS Cost Anomaly Detection monitor using the Resource Tag monitor type, and configure an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) subscription to send immediate alerts when anomalies are detected.Cevap
  2. Create a Cost Budget in AWS Budgets, filter the budget by the Project: Alpha tag, and configure an alert threshold based on forecasted costs to notify the operations team.Cevap
  3. C
    Configure AWS Cost Explorer to generate daily scheduled reports filtered by the Project: Alpha tag and trigger an Amazon SNS notification if costs exceed a threshold.
  4. D
    Create a daily scheduled report in AWS Cost Explorer that lists cost anomalies detected over the preceding 24 hours and emails the report to the operations team.
  5. E
    Configure AWS Billing Conductor to create a billing group for the accounts, generate daily pro forma invoices, and send alerts when the pro forma costs for the Project: Alpha tag exceed the threshold.

Cevap

To meet the requirements, the solutions architect should configure an AWS Cost Anomaly Detection monitor using the Resource Tag monitor type with an Amazon SNS subscription for immediate alerting, and create a Cost Budget in AWS Budgets filtered by the Project: Alpha tag with an alert threshold based on forecasted costs.
AWS Cost Anomaly Detection monitors cost monitors and sends immediate notifications using Amazon SNS when an unexpected spend anomaly is detected, satisfying the quick turnaround requirement. AWS Budgets allows cost budgets to be filtered by tags (like Project: Alpha) and can alert based on actual or forecasted cost thresholds, satisfying the budget projection requirement.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Address the sudden cost spike monitoring requirement.
Recommend AWS Cost Anomaly Detection, which uses machine learning to detect unusual cost rises and supports near real-time alerts via Amazon SNS.
Traditional budgeting or retrospective reports cannot alert within a few hours of an unexpected spike without significant custom development and delay.
2
Address the tag-based projected monthly budget requirement.
Recommend AWS Budgets filtered by the Project: Alpha tag with a threshold set on forecasted costs.
AWS Budgets natively evaluates forecasted monthly usage against a specific threshold and sends alerts before the budget limit is actually breached.
3
Eliminate retrospective analysis and custom billing solutions.
Discard options using AWS Cost Explorer scheduled reports and AWS Billing Conductor.
AWS Cost Explorer is a retrospective visualization tool that lacks direct alerting triggers, and AWS Billing Conductor is designed for customer/partner pro forma billing structures, not near real-time monitoring.
