When you enable the monitoring of estimated charges for your AWS count,

10:28

the estimated charges are calculated and sent several times daily to cloudwatch

10:33

as metric data.

10:35

This alert is sent

The alarm triggers when your account billing exceeds the threshold that you specify

10:46

it triggers on Lee when actual building exceeds that threshold

10:50
