A company wants to receive a notification when a specific AWS cost threshold is reached. Which AWS services or tools can the company use to meet this requirement? (Choose two.)
B. AWS Budgets: AWS Budgets is a service that allows you to set custom cost and usage budgets for your AWS resources. You can configure a budget with a specific threshold and define actions, such as sending notifications, when that threshold is reached.
D. Amazon CloudWatch: Amazon CloudWatch is a monitoring service that can be used to collect and track metrics, logs, and events from various AWS resources. It supports setting up alarms based on cost metrics, so you can create an alarm for a specific cost threshold and configure it to send notifications when the threshold is breached.
B. AWS Budgets: Allows the company to set custom cost and usage budgets that alert them when thresholds are exceeded. They can receive notifications via email or Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) when the budget thresholds are reached.
D. Amazon CloudWatch: Can be used to create custom alarms based on cost metrics. The company can set up alarms to trigger notifications when specific cost thresholds are met or exceeded. CloudWatch Alarms can notify through various channels, including Amazon SNS.
Budgets allows you to set custom cost and usage and send alerts and notifications when a threshold is reached. CloudWatch monitors activities happening from AWS resources and sends alerts.

The other options are described as follows:
A. Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS): SQS is a fully managed message queuing service.
C. Cost Explorer: Cost Explorer is a tool for exploring and analyzing AWS costs but does not provide direct notifications for cost thresholds.
E. AWS Cost and Usage Report: The Cost and Usage Report provides detailed information about AWS costs but does not offer real-time notifications for cost thresholds.
COST EXPLORER IS WRONG!
AWS Cost Explorer has an easy-to-use interface that lets you visualize, understand, and manage your AWS costs and usage over time. Create a cost and usage forecast for a future time range for your report. You can use a forecast to estimate your AWS bill and SET ALARMS AND BUDGETS BASED ON PREDICTIONS (AND NOT THRESHOLDS!).
Answer is correct, you can create billing alarm in CloudWatch

There is no SNS in the options, so the only option is to set the threshold on AWS Budgets and notifications via cloudwatch. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
