AWS project spend limits pause resources, delete data after 90 days

AWS's simplified builder experience adds project-level monthly spend limits: hitting the cap pauses the project and stops its resources. Data is preserved initially but permanently deleted after 90 days paused without action. Creating a limit requires a paid plan, with a minimum of $20 or AWS's conservative usage estimate.

• The ceiling covers pre-tax charges; credits are excluded
• Notifications fire at 50%, 75% and 90% of the limit or 10 days before forecast
• Project data is permanently deleted after 90 days paused without action
• Minimum limit is the greater of $20 or AWS's conservative estimate
