AWS Billing alert notification

0

I want to set an alert to be notified when the AWS bill breaches 10000 USD. I have tried with cloudwatch and Budget but both of them send just a single notification that I have missed most of the time and it ended up paying double the budgeted amount.

Can I get the notifications daily until the bill goes down below 10000 USD? A quick response will be highly appreciated.

I have this setup to receive daily budget reports.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cost-management/latest/userguide/reporting-cost-budget.html

Otherwise, it is possible to configure repeated notifications of CloudWatch alarms that have gone into alarm as shown in the following document.

  • I did that but the issue is this setup sends the mail just once I wish to get mails until the bill goes down 10000 USD. Thanks for the response anyhow.

It sounds like what you need can be done with a budget report https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cost-management/latest/userguide/create-budget-report.html

Set it up to run daily, with an alert threshold of $10k https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cost-management/latest/userguide/budgets-controls.html

I haven't tried it myself, but this guide on a third party site appears to take you through the individual steps https://dev.to/aws-builders/setup-a-everyday-alert-on-your-aws-usage-bill-3c5k

I am not sure you can get daily email fir alert out if the box in the billing budget section.

You may do something custom or instead rely on Budgets Reports, which can be daily: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cost-management/latest/userguide/create-budget-report.html
