New York, New York, April 2023 - Usage AI, a leading provider of cost-saving solutions for enterprise businesses using Amazon Web Services (AWS), is proud to announce the launch of its groundbreaking new product: OpenSearch Reserved Instances (RIs) with guaranteed buyback. This offering is an industry first and has been developed in collaboration with AWS.

OpenSearch Reserved Instances offer various pricing options, with No Upfront Reserved Instances (NURI) providing significant savings compared to On-Demand pricing. Usage AI focuses on three-year, no-upfront OpenSearch RIs, enabling customers to enjoy substantial cost savings without the long-term commitment typically associated with these services. The guaranteed buyback feature provides customers with unparalleled flexibility, allowing them to adjust their usage as needed without incurring any financial penalties.

Usage AI's OpenSearch RIs with guaranteed buyback support all instance families on a case-by-case basis.

In anticipation of customer inquiries, Usage AI has provided answers to several potential questions:

A: When customers purchase OpenSearch RIs with guaranteed buyback from Usage AI, they have the assurance that, should they no longer require the RIs or wish to adjust their usage, Usage AI will buy back the underutilized hours as well as broker its exchange across its pool of hundreds of customers. This allows customers to avoid financial penalties and maintain optimal cost efficiency.

A: One-year RIs offer a shorter commitment period and lower overall savings compared to three-year RIs. Usage AI's OpenSearch RIs with guaranteed buyback use three-year, no-upfront RIs, providing customers with substantial savings and the opportunity to avoid long-term lock-in.
