There are no publicly advertised discounts or promotions specifically for AWS Global Accelerator itself. AWS Global Accelerator pricing consists of a fixed hourly fee per accelerator and data transfer fees based on the regions involved, with no mention of discounts or promotional pricing on the official AWS pricing pages or documentation[3][4][5].
However, AWS does offer various discounts and vouchers related to AWS certification exams and training programs, but these do not apply to AWS Global Accelerator service usage or billing[2].
AWS Global Accelerator operates on a pay-as-you-go pricing model without long-term commitments, which provides flexibility and cost control by paying only for what you use. Some cost-saving strategies include optimizing traffic routing and application architecture to reduce data transfer fees, but these are operational optimizations rather than direct discounts[5][9].
In summary, while AWS provides discounts on certification exams and training, there are currently no direct discounts or promotional offers available for AWS Global Accelerator service usage. Cost savings are primarily achieved through architectural optimization and efficient traffic management rather than through promotional pricing.
