AWS Organizations

Correct Answer: Centralized management of multiple AWS accounts

Centralized management of multiple AWS accounts is a key benefit of using AWS Organizations. It allows you to manage and govern your AWS accounts centrally, enforce policies, and simplify billing across multiple accounts. The other options, while useful features, are not the primary benefits of AWS Organizations. Automatic workload distribution across regions is more related to services like AWS Auto Scaling and Elastic Load Balancing. Built-in automation for deploying resources across accounts is not a core feature of AWS Organizations. Granular access control for individual services within an account is typically achieved through IAM policies, not directly through AWS Organizations.

Correct Answer: To centrally manage and govern multiple AWS accounts

The primary purpose of using AWS Organizations is to centrally manage and govern multiple AWS accounts. It allows you to create and manage multiple AWS accounts within a hierarchical structure, apply policies and control access to resources across those accounts, and simplify billing by consolidating billing for all accounts. While AWS Organizations does provide a unified billing platform, that is not its main purpose. It is not used for automating resource creation within a single account or enabling data transfer between accounts in different regions.

Correct Answer: The management account has full control over all member accounts and can apply policies to them.

In AWS Organizations, the management account has full control and administrative privileges over all member accounts within the organization. It can create, invite, remove member accounts, and apply policies and controls across the organization. Member accounts, on the other hand, are subordinate to the management account and are subject to the policies and controls set by the management account. They do not have control over the management account or other member accounts. The relationship is hierarchical, with the management account at the top of the hierarchy, governing the entire organization.
