How to monitor costs for marbot?

After the 14-day free trial, an AWS Marketplace subscription is required to use marbot. This also means that marbot will appear as an item on the AWS billing statement. You will learn how to use AWS Budgets to monitor the monthly costs for marbot and get notified when usage exceeds your budget.
- Create a new cost budget (see Managing your costs with AWS Budgets for details).
