Cloudfront: Purchase Cloudfront saving bundles

Difficulty: Commitment

Description

The CloudFront Security Savings Bundle offers a 30% discount on CloudFront charges in exchange for a one-year monthly spend commitment. Customers also receive free AWS WAF usage credits up to 10% of the committed amount. This is the CloudFront equivalent of a Savings Plan, ideal for accounts with a stable, predictable baseline of CDN spend.


Selection Criteria

  • The account has at least 12 months of CloudFront spending history.

  • Average monthly CloudFront spend exceeds $10/month (the minimum threshold for meaningful savings).

  • No active CloudFront Security Savings Bundle is currently in place (or the existing one is undersized relative to current spend).

  • CloudFront spend is stable and predictable — the lowest monthly spend over the last 12 months serves as a safe commitment baseline.

  • The account uses or could benefit from AWS WAF (the bundle includes WAF credits up to 10% of the committed amount).


Expected Savings

There is only one term: one year, with 30% savings on CloudFront charges. This also comes with AWS WAF usage credits of 10% of the committed amount.

Customers can achieve up to 30% savings on their CloudFront charges. For example, committing to $70 per month provides $100 worth of CloudFront usage, effectively offering a 30% discount. Additionally, the bundle includes AWS WAF usage credits up to 10% of the committed amount, further enhancing cost savings.
