  calculation-type = "monthly" //   # daily, weekly, monthly, annual are the options
  cron-expression  = "cron(0 7 ? * MON *)" // 9:00AM every Monday
  aws-region       = "eu-central-1"
  sns-endpoint     = ["[email protected]", "[email protected]"]
  budget-threshold  = 100 // By setting this variable to a value greater than 0, Budgets will be created in AWS, and an alarm will be set up to monitor and notify based on predefined thresholds. The SNS endpoint(s) will be alerted if costs reach 80% of the threshold value.
