Amazon Budgets Documentation

Amazon Budgets is designed to enable you to set a budget that alerts you when you exceed (or are forecasted to exceed) your budgeted cost or usage amount. You can also set alerts based on your Reserved Instance (RI) Utilization and Coverage using Amazon Budgets. Amazon Budget Actions, is also designed to enable you to configure specific actions to respond to cost and usage status in your accounts, so that if your cost or usage exceeds or is forecasted to exceed your threshold, actions can be executed programatically or with your approval to reduce unintentional over-spending.

Amazon Budgets gives you access to a number of filtering dimensions (e.g., Service of Amazon Web Services, Availability Zone, and Member Account), and allows you to create budgets that are tracked on various cadences.

Amazon Budgets integrates with multiple other services of Amazon Web Services, such as Amazon Cost Explorer, so you can view and analyze your cost and usage drivers, Amazon Chatbot, so you can receive Budget alerts in your designated Slack channel or Amazon Chime room, and Amazon Service Catalog, so you can track cost on your approved Amazon Web Services portfolios and products.
