Negotiating an AWS EDP is complex—and risky if done wrong
  • 4
    Getting locked into the
    wrong commitments
    Overcommit, and you're stuck overspending. Undercommit, and you leave money on the table. Either way, you lose.
  • 5
    Not just a discount
    
- it’s complicated
    An AWS EDP comes with layers of clauses, terms, and timelines. Without the right help, it’s easy to miss something important.
  • 6
    Too many variables
    involved
    Future workloads, instance types, team expansion, service migrations; AWS EDP planning demands analyzing many critical factors.
  • 6
    AWS has the
    advantage
    They have the data, experts, and experience.
If you’re not coming to the table equally prepared, it’s hard to come out ahead.
  • 6
    Great teams still
    
need AWS experts
    Your team may be sharp, but they’re not AWS specialists. To get the best deal, you need someone who knows AWS inside out.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q1. When is the right time to call CloudKeeper?

    The best time to engage us is before negotiations even begin—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance. That’s when we can bring the most value: helping you forecast accurately, plan your commitments smartly, and build a strong negotiation plan. Whether you're just starting to explore options or nearing renewal, CloudKeeper is with you from day one to signature day—guiding you every step of the way.

  • Q2. How much time does the AWS EDP negotiation process take?

    On average, the process could take a minimum of 4 weeks. That said, timelines vary based on your internal approvals, AWS response time, and contract complexity. Starting the planning phase early helps keep things smooth and stress-free.

  • Q3. Will you work directly with AWS on our behalf?

    Yes. We act as your extended team, guiding you through the process and even engaging with AWS alongside you to help drive the best outcomes.

  • Q4. Can CloudKeeper support us in the AWS EDP renewal negotiation process?

    Absolutely. In fact, renewals are a great opportunity to renegotiate terms and unlock better value. We’ll help you make the most of it.

    No worries—we can still add value. Even if your AWS EDP is active, we help optimize how you use it.

And when it’s time for renewal, we’ll be right there to help you negotiate a better deal.
