AWS Billing Dashboard

“

- You've decided to host your static website on AWS, register the domain through Route 53, AWS's domain name system, and hosted your website on Amazon S3, a storage service. You've now got bills to pay for your AWS resource use. What do you do? You log into your AWS Admin Console and check out the AWS billing dashboard. The AWS billing dashboard allows you to estimate and plan your AWS costs. Simplify your accounting if you have multiple AWS accounts through a feature called consolidated billing and receive alerts for your service usage thresholds, which could help keep you from spending more money than you anticipated. Even when you haven't begun incurring usage costs yet, you can still check out the billing dashboard to learn how you can visualize your monthly chargeable costs and bills. Invoices are generated after monthly billing period, or when subscriptions or one-time purchases are made.
