A large mobile gaming company has successfully migrated all of its on-premises infrastructure to the AWS Cloud. A solutions architect is reviewing the environment to ensure that it was built according to the design and that it is running in alignment with the Well-Architected Framework.
While reviewing previous monthly costs in Cost Explorer, the solutions architect notices that the creation and subsequent termination of several large instance types account for a high proportion of the costs. The solutions architect finds out that the company's developers are launching new Amazon EC2 instances as part of their testing and that the developers are not using the appropriate instance types.
The solutions architect must implement a control mechanism to limit the instance types that only the developers can launch.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
Create AWS Organization:
In the AWS Management Console, navigate to AWS Organizations and create a new organization in the parent account.
Invite LOB Accounts:
Invite each Line of Business (LOB) account to join the organization. This allows centralized management and governance of all accounts.
Enable Consolidated Billing:
Enable consolidated billing in the billing console of the parent account. Link all LOB accounts to ensure a single consolidated invoice that breaks down costs per account.
Apply Service Control Policies (SCPs):
Implement Service Control Policies (SCPs) to define the services and features permitted for each LOB account as per the governance policy, while still delegating full administrative permissions to the LOB accounts.
By consolidating billing and using AWS Organizations, the company can achieve centralized billing and governance while maintaining independent administrative control for each LOB account
