A. B. C. D.Correct Answer: A.
Option A is CORRECT because Cost and Usage Reports provide the required data to an S3 bucket.

This can be achieved by selecting the S3 bucket to which the billing data should be delivered and then configuring the Cost and Usage Reports.
Option A is the correct answer. Here's a more detailed explanation of why the other options are incorrect:
Option B suggests using the AWS Cost Explorer console to register an S3 bucket to receive the daily cost and usage information. However, this option is not accurate since the Cost Explorer is mainly used for analyzing the cost and usage of AWS resources.
Option C proposes registering a savings plan to publish the daily cost and usage data to a custom S3 bucket using the AWS Saving Plans console. However, this option is not relevant since savings plans are mainly used to reduce the cost of using AWS resources.
Option D suggests using AWS Budgets to create a cost and usage budget plan that automatically transfers the billing data to an S3 bucket. However, this option is not accurate since AWS Budgets are mainly used for setting custom cost and usage budgets to track resource utilization and cost.
