AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 824

Which AWS service will allow a user to set custom cost and usage limits, and will alert when the thresholds are exceeded?

Answer options

• A. AWS Organizations
• B. AWS Budgets
• C. Cost Explorer
• D. AWS Trusted Advisor

Correct answer: B

Explanation

AWS Budgets is the correct choice because it allows users to set custom cost and usage budgets and triggers alerts when thresholds are breached. AWS Organizations is for multi-account management, Cost Explorer is for analyzing past spending patterns, and AWS Trusted Advisor provides best-practice recommendations but does not support custom budget threshold alerting.
