AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 261

An organization is using AWS since a few months. The finance team wants to visualize the pattern of AWS spending. Which of the below AWS tool will help for this requirement?

Answer options

• A. AWS Cost Manager
• B. AWS Cost Explorer
• C. AWS CloudWatch
• D. AWS Consolidated Billing

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is AWS Cost Explorer, as it is specifically designed for visualizing and analyzing AWS spending patterns over time. AWS Cost Manager is not a recognized tool, AWS CloudWatch focuses on monitoring resources and performance metrics, and AWS Consolidated Billing is related to managing multiple accounts rather than visualizing spending trends.
