Announcing Database Savings Plans with up to 35% savings

Today, AWS announces Database Savings Plans, a new flexible pricing model that helps you save up to 35% in exchange for a commitment to a consistent amount of usage (measured in $/hour) over a one-year term with no upfront payment.

Database Savings Plans automatically apply to eligible serverless and provisioned instance usage regardless of supported engine, instance family, size, deployment option, or AWS Region. For example, with Database Savings Plans, you can change between Aurora db.r7g and db.r8g instances, shift a workload from EU (Ireland) to US (Ohio), modernize from Amazon RDS for Oracle to Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL or from RDS to Amazon DynamoDB and still benefit from discounted pricing offered by Database Savings Plans.

Database Savings Plans will be available starting today in all AWS Regions, except China Regions, with support for Amazon Aurora, Amazon RDS, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon ElastiCache, Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility), Amazon Neptune, Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra), Amazon Timestream, and AWS Database Migration Service (DMS).

You can get started with Database Savings Plans from the AWS Billing and Cost Management Console or by using the AWS CLI. To realize the largest savings, you can make a commitment to Savings Plans by using purchase recommendations provided in the console. For a more customized analysis, you can use the Savings Plans Purchase Analyzer to estimate potential cost savings for custom purchase scenarios.
