    AZ-305 · Question 03 · Domain 1.1: Logging and Monitoring

    A startup company has a single Azure subscription with a monthly budget of $5,000.

    The CFO wants to ensure that the development team is notified immediately if the forecasted spending for the current month exceeds $4,500. The solution must not require writing any custom code and must be implemented with the least administrative effort.

    Which Azure service should you configure?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Azure Cost Management budgets

    B.

    Azure Monitor metric alerts

    C.

    Azure Advisor

    D.

    Azure Logic Apps

    How to approach this question

    Look for the native Azure tool designed specifically for tracking spend and alerting on forecasts.

    Full Answer

    A.Azure Cost Management budgets✓ Correct
    Azure Cost Management budgets
    Azure Cost Management allows you to create budgets at various scopes (subscription, resource group). You can configure alerts based on actual costs or forecasted costs. When the threshold is met, it automatically sends email notifications to specified recipients without requiring any custom code.

    Common mistakes

    Confusing Azure Advisor (which gives retrospective recommendations) with Cost Management (which handles proactive budgets and alerts).
