AWS Budgets is used for the internal FinOps experience, creating monthly cost budgets for AWS accounts and business units for tracking actual spend versus forecasted spend. The service sets thresholds to ensure spending does not exceed limits, sending alerts to the FinOps team, engineering, finance, and management teams. AWS Budgets also monitors specific cost categories and services using tags on linked accounts, supporting FinOps governance and cost accountability. A recent purchase resulted in a spike in a particular cost category that sent an SNS notification to the FinOps distribution list, allowing the team to react, understand why the spike occurred, ask questions, and get useful information from the AWS team.
AWS Budgets serves as the main tool for proactive cost monitoring and alerting, ensuring we do not exceed planned budgets at the account, service, or project level. We use AWS Budgets for proactive cost monitoring and alerting by setting a monthly budget per team and account, while also configuring alerts for 50%. For one team, we have set up the 50% threshold, and for another team, we have set up the 80% threshold. AWS then sends alerts via email and SMS. For example, if EC2 costs cross 80% of the budget, the team gets notified and investigates optimization opportunities.
