  1. A company wants to receive alerts when their AWS monthly charges exceed a specific threshold. Which service should they use?

    AWS Budgets lets you set custom cost and usage thresholds and sends alerts via email or SNS when those thresholds are exceeded.

  2. Which AWS pricing model allows customers to pay for compute capacity by the hour or second with no long-term commitments?

    On-Demand Instances let you pay for compute capacity by the hour or second with no upfront cost or long-term commitment.

  3. What is the primary benefit of using Consolidated Billing in AWS Organizations?

    Answer: It combines usage across all accounts to reach higher volume discount tiers

    Consolidated Billing aggregates usage across all member accounts, which can qualify the organization for higher volume discounts on services like S3 and EC2.

  4. A startup expects variable compute workloads with no predictable pattern. Which EC2 purchasing option minimizes cost while accepting possible interruption?

    Answer: Spot Instances

    Spot Instances use spare AWS capacity and can offer up to 90% savings compared to On-Demand, but AWS can reclaim them with a two-minute warning.

    Answer: AWS Cost Explorer

    AWS Cost Explorer provides interactive charts and filtering to visualize spending patterns, identify trends, and forecast future costs.
