You actually can do this yourself quite readily, through use of CloudWatch billing metrics (which can be broken down by individual service). Define some alarms based on billing thresholds, and perform automated scaling actions in response.
AWS can't exactly do this for you, as explained by previous commenters, but they do give you the basic features you'd need for implementing it.
- ericd 13y agoIf you can get something to monitor your billing rate, you might be able to get PagerDuty to call you if your billing rate goes over x per hour.
- crucialfelix 13y agoThere is a newrelic plugin that does this. It can graph your costs and raise alerts. AWS Costs & Usage Analytics http://www.newvem.com/new-relic/ http://www.newvem.com/new-relic/
