The Amazon Web Services (AWS) Open Data Sponsorship Program covers the cost of storage for publicly available high-value cloud-optimized datasets. We work with data providers who seek to:
- Democratize access to data by making it available for analysis on AWS
- Develop new cloud-native techniques, formats, and tools that lower the cost of working with data
- Encourage the development of communities that benefit from access to shared datasets
Requirements
To share your dataset through the Open Data Sponsorship Program, you must agree to the Open Data Sponsorship Program Terms and Conditions.
Application process
AWS evaluates applications to the Open Data Sponsorship Program on a quarterly basis. Review cycles start in January, April, July, and October of each calendar year. We expect to communicate application decisions by the end of each quarter. New datasets in the Open Data Sponsorship Program are announced publicly on the AWS Public Sector Blog on a quarterly basis.
If we bring your dataset into the Open Data Sponsorship Program, we will cover the costs of storage and data transfer for a period of two years, in accordance with the Open Data Sponsorship Program Terms and Conditions. Program enrollment is renewable after the two-year period under agreement from all parties, in accordance with the Open Data Sponsorship Program Terms and Conditions.
