Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 467 discussion

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/ri-turn-off.html Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the AWS Billing console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/billing/ . Note Ensure you're logged in to the management account of your AWS Organizations.

So what exactly is the question?

I dont think there is a way for us to sell excess Savings plan. Only Selling Reserved instances is possible in marketplace

I'd go with D, due to "The company uses less than 50% of its purchased compute power". Like, why are you sharing it between other accounts of the company, if the company itself doesn't need it? If you provisioned too much you can sell the overprovisioned capacity on the market. I'd understand B if it was about the account using about 50% of the plan and other accounts running similar workloads, but no such thing is stated.

Option E, Take it out of the salary of the guy who made the decision to purchase an entire compute plan without studying the company's needs.

in the question, it does not clarify then number of accounts the company has, if they only has one account, I think it is D,

what are you guys doing this section is for discussion not for copy paste

B, it's a generic Compute Savings Plan that can be used for compute workloads in the other accounts. A doesn't work, discount sharing must be enabled for all accounts (at least for those that provide and share the discounts). C is not possible, there's a reason why the workloads are in different accounts. D would be a last resort if there wouldn't be any other workloads in the own organization, but here are.

I saw similar question in older exam one can sell on the market unused capacity

B. Turn on discount sharing from the Billing Preferences section of the account console in the company's Organizations management account

"For example, you might want to sell Reserved Instances after moving instances to a new AWS Region, changing to a new instance type, ending projects before the term expiration, when your business needs change, or if you have unneeded capacity." https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ri-market-general.html

answer is B. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/ri-turn-off.html#:~:text=choose%20Save.-,Turning%20on%20shared%20reserved%20instances%20and%20Savings%20Plans%20discounts,-You%20can%20use

The company uses less than 50% of its purchased compute power. For this reason i believe D is the best solution : https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ri-market-general.html

The company Organization's management account can turn on/off shared reserved instances.

To summarize, option C (Migrate additional compute workloads from another AWS account to the account that has the Compute Savings Plan) is a valid solution to address the underutilization of the Compute Savings Plan. However, it involves workload migration and may require careful planning and coordination. Consider the feasibility and impact of migrating workloads before implementing this solution.

Answer - C If a member account within AWS Organizations has purchased a Compute Savings Plan

Asnwer - C
