A company's finance team wants automated notifications whenever spending for a Google Cloud billing account is forecast to reach 90 % of a predefined quarterly limit, so they can act before the limit is exceeded. Which built-in Cloud Billing feature best meets this need?
Cloud Billing budgets let administrators set a target amount for a project, folder, or entire billing account. The service continuously compares actual and forecasted spend to that amount and can send email or Pub/Sub alerts when user-defined thresholds-such as 90 % of the budget-are reached. Committed Use Discounts lower long-term costs but do not generate alerts, Billing export only writes cost data to BigQuery without notifications, and project quotas restrict resource quantity rather than spend.
