AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 915

A company that has multiple business units wants to centrally manage and govern its AWS Cloud environments. The company wants to automate the creation of
AWS accounts, apply service control policies (SCPs), and simplify billing processes.
Which AWS service or tool should the company use to meet these requirements?

Answer options

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

Correct answer: A

Explanation

AWS Organizations allows companies to centrally manage and govern multiple AWS accounts, automate account creation, apply Service Control Policies (SCPs) for access control, and consolidate billing. AWS Cost Explorer and AWS Budgets are used for cost management and tracking, not account governance or SCP application. AWS Trusted Advisor provides recommendations to optimize AWS infrastructure but does not offer multi-account management or policy enforcement.
