A company uses AWS Organizations with consolidated billing. The finance team wants to allocate costs to different business units, but some resources are shared across business units. They need a way to track and report on these costs accurately. What should the finance team do?

Activate cost allocation tags and apply them to all resources, then use AWS Cost Explorer to filter and group by these tags.

Use AWS Budgets to set spending limits for each business unit.

Create a separate AWS account for each business unit and move all resources into the respective accounts.

Enable detailed billing reports and manually allocate costs in a spreadsheet.

A company is migrating from a single AWS account to a multi-account structure. They have identified that some workloads are currently running in the management account and need to be moved to a new production account. What is the recommended approach for this migration?

Create the new production account, deploy the workloads from scratch, and decommission the resources in the management account.

Use AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM) to share the resources from the management account with the production account.

Use AWS CloudFormation StackSets to copy the resources from the management account to the production account.

Create a VPC peering connection between the management account and the production account and move the resources.

A company is designing a multi-account structure for a large enterprise with multiple business units. Each business unit has its own development and production environments. The company wants to centralize security and networking, but also wants to give each business unit some autonomy. Which account structure should the company use?

Create a single OU for all business units and use SCPs to restrict access to production resources.

Create a separate account for each business unit, but do not create any OUs.

Create a single account for all business units and use IAM policies to separate access.

Create a shared services account for centralized security and networking, and separate OUs for each business unit, with development and production sub-OUs.

In AWS Organizations, what is the purpose of a service control policy (SCP)?

To define the maximum permissions that accounts in an OU can grant to their IAM principals

To automatically approve IAM role requests across accounts

To configure cross-account trust relationships

To manage consolidated billing details
