AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 Practice Question
Your company uses multiple cloud accounts for different departments. Management wants to centralize billing to simplify cost oversight and potentially benefit from aggregated usage discounts. Which service should you use to achieve this goal?
Create budget alerts in AWS Budgets for each account.
Use AWS Cost Explorer to analyze costs across all accounts.
Set up AWS Organizations to combine accounts and enable consolidated invoicing.
Implement AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM) to share resources.
AWS Organizations allows you to centrally manage multiple AWS accounts and enables consolidated billing. With this service, all accounts under the organization receive a single invoice, and usage from all accounts is aggregated, which may qualify for volume pricing discounts. AWS Cost Explorer helps you visualize and analyze costs over time but does not centralize billing across multiple accounts. AWS Budgets allows you to set cost and usage budgets but doesn't consolidate billing across accounts. AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM) enables resource sharing between accounts but does not manage or consolidate billing.
