Amazon Redshift adds Reserved Instance upfront pricing options for RG instances

Amazon Redshift announces the availability of All Upfront and Partial Upfront payment options for 1-year and 3-year reserved instances for RG instances. Reserved instances allow customers to benefit from significant savings over on-demand rates. The new payment options join the previously available No Upfront option, giving customers greater flexibility to optimize compute costs based on their financial preferences. All Upfront delivers the maximum discount by paying for the full reservation term at the start, while Partial Upfront splits the cost between an initial payment and lower monthly installments. Amazon Redshift RG reserved instances with All Upfront and Partial Upfront payment options are now available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), US West (N. California), Canada (Central), South America (São Paulo), Europe (Ireland), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (London), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm), Europe (Milan), Europe (Spain), Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Jakarta), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Asia Pacific (Osaka), Asia Pacific (Malaysia), Asia Pacific (Hyderabad), Asia Pacific (Taiwan), Asia Pacific (Melbourne), Asia Pacific (Bangkok), and Mexico (Central).
