With CloudFront Security Savings Bundle, you have the flexibility to choose the monthly commitment that best meets your workloads and maximize savings. For example, if you commit $70 per month, you get CloudFront usage worth $100 covered (a 30% discount). This usage benefit is not limited to data delivered by CloudFront, but applies to all CloudFront usage types including Lambda@Edge. Additionally, customers can take advantage of AWS WAF to protect their web application against common web exploits. In this example, the savings bundle also covers $7 worth of AWS WAF charges, covering up to 11.6M WAF requests.
Enabling the CloudFront Security Savings Bundle is easy. From the CloudFront console, you can use the built-in savings estimator and recommendations capability to estimate your savings based on your historical usage or manual inputs. You can also add multiple Savings Bundles to cover future growth in usage.
