AWS Marketplace
AWS Marketplace is a digital catalog on Amazon Web Services where customers can find, buy, deploy, and manage third-party software that runs on AWS. Software vendors list their products for direct purchase and deployment into a customer’s own AWS environment, and some Marketplace listings are reached securely through AWS PrivateLink endpoint services rather than over the public internet.
Key points
- Digital catalog that lets customers find, buy, deploy, and manage third-party software for use on AWS.
- Vendors list and sell software directly to AWS customers, who can deploy it straight into their own AWS environment.
- Some AWS Marketplace services are accessed as endpoint services through AWS PrivateLink, keeping traffic off the public internet.
- Private offers let sellers negotiate custom pricing and contract terms with a specific buyer for AMI, container, SaaS, machine learning, and professional services products; contract durations can run up to 12 years (144 months).
- AWS Private Marketplace lets an organization curate an approved subset of the public catalog and control which products members of the organization can request or subscribe to.
- SaaS contracts support multi-year, custom-duration private offers, with “express private offers” available for pay-as-you-go SaaS products to speed up approval.
- Professional services (assessments, migration, support, managed services, training) are listed and sold in AWS Marketplace exclusively through private offers.
