I'm building app on top of Amazon S3. How can I keep my S3 running under a set budget? Suppose I don't want unexpected traffic to over charge my AWS account. I'd rather it remain unavailable.
You can create up to 62 budget days per month using the AWS Budgets service within the Free Tier limit. After that, you simply pay as you go to create additional budgets.
You'll get multiple emails from AWS to pay the outstanding amount. If you fail to pay they will first suspend your account and terminate it (delete all data) after two months.
Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the AWS Billing console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/billing/ . On the navigation bar in the upper-right corner, choose your account name (or alias), and choose Account. Under AWS Regions, next to the Region to deactivate, choose Disable.
Q: If I go over the Free Tier limit in a given month, how much will I have to pay? If your usage exceeds the monthly free tier limits, you simply pay standard, pay-as-you-go AWS service rates. See the AWS Pricing page for full pricing details.
There is no way to set a budget for AWS.
But this feature is being requested very often, so probably one day it will be implemented.
