Option D with the VPC flow logs? That's just overkill. Unless you're dealing with a state-sponsored hacking group, I think that's a bit much.

Option C is the clear winner here. Reviewing the Cost Explorer is like checking your bank account - it's the easiest way to spot any funny business.

I'm with Candidate 3 on this one. Who needs all the fancy monitoring when you can just eyeball the numbers yourself? Just don't forget to check it on your lunch break.

I agree, we can't rely on manual checks. Candidate 1's solution with Lambda function seems like the best option for early detection.

I think Candidate 3's approach is too manual. We need automated monitoring to catch things early.

That's a good point, but I still think option A provides the earliest detection of cost increases due to its frequent monitoring and analysis of usage reports.

I disagree, I believe option D is more effective as it involves analyzing network traffic for anomalies which could lead to cost increases.

Option B sounds like the way to go. Proactive monitoring of cost anomalies is crucial, and AWS Cost Anomaly Detection can give you that early warning.

A) Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that invokes an AWS Lambda function hourly. Program the Lambda function to download an AWS usage report from AWS Data Exports about usage of all services. Program the Lambda function to analyze the report and to send a notification when anomalies are detected.

B) Create a cost monitor in AWS Cost Anomaly Detection. Configure an individual alert to notify an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when the percentage above the expected cost exceeds a threshold.
