A company wants to start using Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) in AWS.

Given the company ' s large spend commitments as part of an AWS Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) totaling $15 million, purchasing Nutanix licenses through the AWS Marketplace ensures that the costs contribute to the EDP commitment.

This approach integrates the Nutanix license costs into the overall AWS spend, thereby maximizing the benefits of the EDP.

Purchasing directly from Nutanix or leveraging existing licenses might not count towards the AWS EDP commitment, and trial licenses are typically for evaluation purposes and do not contribute to the committed spend.

Refer to the Nutanix and AWS documentation on licensing and marketplace purchases, and EDP program details.
