A company utilizes AWS Organizations, with each department having its own AWS account. Application teams across these departments develop and deploy solutions independently. The company aims to reduce compute costs and manage these costs effectively across all departments, while also enhancing billing visibility for each department. Additionally, the company seeks to maintain operational flexibility in selecting compute resources. Which solution best meets these requirements?
Explanation:
Option C is the correct answer. This option suggests configuring AWS Organizations with consolidated billing to centralize cost management and improve visibility into billing across departments. The recommendation to implement a department-specific tagging strategy and use Tag Editor for applying tags ensures accurate cost allocation. Additionally, purchasing Compute Savings Plans provides flexibility and cost savings not only for EC2 instances but also for other services like AWS Fargate and AWS Lambda, which is more comprehensive than EC2 Instance Savings Plans. This balanced approach meets the company's requirements for reducing compute costs, managing costs effectively across departments, and maintaining operational flexibility.
