Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 937 discussion

A company has an internal application that runs on Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group. The EC2 instances are compute optimized and use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes.

The company wants to identify cost optimizations across the EC2 instances, the Auto Scaling group, and the EBS volumes.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the MOST operational efficiency?

  • A. Create a new AWS Cost and Usage Report. Search the report for cost recommendations for the EC2 instances the Auto Scaling group, and the EBS volumes.
  • B. Create new Amazon CloudWatch billing alerts. Check the alert statuses for cost recommendations for the EC2 instances, the Auto Scaling group, and the EBS volumes.
  • C. Configure AWS Compute Optimizer for cost recommendations for the EC2 instances, the Auto Scaling group and the EBS volumes.
  • D. Configure AWS Compute Optimizer for cost recommendations for the EC2 instances. Create a new AWS Cost and Usage Report. Search the report for cost recommendations for the Auto Scaling group and the EBS volumes.

Selected Answer: C
the question here focuses on (COST Optimization) - AWS Cost and Usage Report is the most detailed report that shows your AWS usage and charges. - cloudwatch is only for setting alerts based on setting policies- - would go right-away with AWS compute Optimizer because this service gives recommendations to optimize your compute resources (like EC2, Lambda, etc.) for better performance and lower cost. which is C and D BUT when reading D choice there's nothing wrong with AWS Cost and Usage report but why would i make it more complex to get the cost optimization? AWS compute Optimizer is more than enough which is C option

Go with Option C for the most efficient and straightforward solution for sure. Just one more thing: AWS Compute Optimizer doesn’t provide cost data directly (such as detailed dollar amounts), so supplementing it with AWS Cost Explorer or Trusted Advisor is a good practice for deeper cost analysis.
