The company has set up consolidated billing and has mapped its departments to the following OUs: Finance, Sales, Human Resources (HR), Marketing, and Operations. Each OU has multiple AWS accounts, one for each environment within a department. These environments are development, test, pre-production, and production.

The HR department is releasing a new system that will launch in 3 months. In preparation, the HR department has purchased several Reserved Instances (RIs) in its production AWS account. The HR department will install the new application on this account. The HR department wants to make sure that other departments cannot share the RI discounts.

  • C. In the AWS Billing and Cost Management console. use the organization’s management account 10 turn off RI Sharing for the HR departments production AWS account.
  • D. Create an SCP in the organization to restrict access to the RIs. Apply the SCP to the OUs of the other departments.

RI sharing is done for the whole Org. It's all or nothing, and it's done in the Billing and Cost Management console in the Org account.

Selected Answer: A
Option A is correct because AWS allows the management of RI sharing settings at the account level within the AWS Billing and Cost Management console. By turning off RI sharing in the HR department’s production account, the RI benefits (such as the discounted rate) are applied only to instances within that account, preventing other accounts, even within the same organization, from accessing these discounts. This directly addresses the requirement. Option C suggests using the organization’s management account to turn off RI sharing for the HR department’s production AWS account. While the management account controls many aspects of AWS Organizations, including consolidated billing, RI sharing preferences are managed at the individual account level within the Billing and Cost Management console, not directly through the management account for specific accounts.

Selected Answer: D
How can you restrict access from AWS billing console? Can you show me please?? Option D is the correct solution because an SCP (Service Control Policy) can be created in the AWS Organizations service to restrict access to specific resources or actions across the entire organization or specific OUs. In this case, an SCP can be created to restrict other departments from accessing the RIs purchased by the HR department's production account. This ensures that the discounts are not shared with other departments.

initially i thought the same....but the catch here is that RIs are purchased in HR Prod department So, we have to work on disabling discount sharing wrt that account so that IT IS NOT SHARED W OTHERS and this actions can only be performed from Management account

Restricting the access to RI's is not the ask in the question, only "restricting the RI discounts" from HR to other departments is the ask, and that you could be done by Management Account (as identified by others in this forum). Hope that helps!

The correct answer is C. In this solution, the organization’s management account can be used to turn off RI sharing for the HR department's production AWS account in the AWS Billing and Cost Management console. This will ensure that the other departments cannot share the RI discounts and the HR department can use the RIs for their new system without any interruption.

A, B and D does not meet the requirement of turning off RI sharing for the HR department's production AWS account. In A, Turning off RI sharing in the HR department's production account will not prevent other departments from sharing the RI discounts. In B, Removing the HR department's production AWS account from the organization may cause issues in consolidated billing and it does not prevent other departments from sharing the RI discounts. In D, Creating an SCP in the organization to restrict access to the RIs is not necessary because the management account can directly turn off the RI sharing, it also does not prevent other departments from sharing the RI discounts.
