AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) — Question 243

A company wants to receive alerts to monitor its overall operating costs for its AWS public cloud infrastructure.

Which AWS offering will meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Amazon EventBridge
• B. Compute Savings Plans
• C. AWS Budgets
• D. Migration Evaluator

Correct answer: C

Explanation

AWS Budgets is designed specifically to help users set custom cost and usage budgets, providing alerts when costs exceed predefined thresholds. In contrast, Amazon EventBridge is focused on event-driven architecture, Compute Savings Plans are about cost savings on compute usage, and Migration Evaluator assists in planning migrations, none of which directly address monitoring operating costs.
