AWS evaluates applications to the Open Data Sponsorship Program every three months. The quarterly deadlines for submitting Open Data Sponsorship Program applications are: March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 (or the first business day after those dates). Application decisions are typically communicated within one month following the applicable quarterly deadline.

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.
