600% more, 0.60$ for extended support vs 0.10$

Still that might be cheaper if a product is going eol then fixing issues blocking an eks upgrade path. Inversely it’s hard to see any justification for the price increase, I can’t see support for these versions costing 600% more but I guess this is why AWS make so much money…

I read this as “keep your stuff current or pay a tax on not patching.”

Which seems to be the overwhelming trend in software. You get it for free but have to pay someone to be lazy about it.

Red Hat. Linkerd & Amazon EKS submissions here today. I'm sure many many more.
