The AWS Enterprise Discount Program apparently requires $1M per year spend. 180TB is about $13k on AWS so presumably not enough to be interesting to them. Hopefully someone who works at AWS can share some info.

For smaller orgs even at the $1-2M/mo level, it can often be a risk not worth taking vs other cost savings mechanisms and locating high-egress use cases elsewhere. Egress bandwidth pricing has been the sacred cow money firehose forever, despite transit costs continuing to shrink.
