Topic 1 Question 24
A company observes an increase in Amazon EC2 costs in its most recent bill. The billing team notices unwanted vertical scaling of instance types for a couple of EC2 instances. A solutions architect needs to create a graph comparing the last 2 months of EC2 costs and perform an in-depth analysis to identify the root cause of the vertical scaling. How should the solutions architect generate the information with the LEAST operational overhead?
Use AWS Budgets to create a budget report and compare EC2 costs based on instance types.
Use Cost Explorer's granular filtering feature to perform an in-depth analysis of EC2 costs based on instance types.
Use graphs from the AWS Billing and Cost Management dashboard to compare EC2 costs based on instance types for the last 2 months.
Use AWS Cost and Usage Reports to create a report and send it to an Amazon S3 bucket. Use Amazon QuickSight with Amazon S3 as a source to generate an interactive graph based on instance types.

The requested result is a graph, so... A - can't be as the result is a report B - can't be as it is limited to 14 days visibility and the graph has to cover 2 months C - seems to provide graphs and the best option available, as... D - could provide graphs, BUT involves operational overhead, which has been requested to be minimised.
👍 16123jhl02022/10/16 Feel like all the answers have a little bit ambiguous, so here is my breaking them down: AWS Billing and Cost Management provides a summarised view of spending i.e. what you spent so far this month, and the predicted end of month bill, this is quite static and gives you a high level overview of spending. In addition you can configure your billing details from here. All of these features are free to use with no charge for accessing the interface.
AWS Cost explorer on the other hand is a paid service ($0.01 per query). By using cost explorer you can dig down into the finer details of expenditure, such as on a region, service, usage type or even tag based level. Using this you can identify costs by targeting your query to be specific enough to identify these charges. Additionally you can make use of hourly billing to get the most accurate upto date billing
