Partner Revenue Measurement now supports User Agent string for certain AWS services

Today, AWS announces the general availability of Partner Revenue Measurement User Agent string — a new capability that enables AWS Partners to measure AWS service consumption driven by their solutions using AWS APIs and SDKs. Partner Revenue Measurement allows Partners to better understand their AWS revenue impact and product consumption patterns. The User Agent string capability allows Partners to embed a unique product code from their AWS Marketplace listing as a user agent to quantify and measure the AWS revenue impact of that solution across certain services.

Partners can now add a user agent (format APN_1.1/pc_<AWS Marketplace product-code>$) in their application to enable AWS service consumption measurement by solution across partner-managed and customer-managed accounts. Partners can also set an environment variable in their SDKs or configure a setting in their AWS shared configuration file to automatically apply the User Agent string to all AWS service calls. This method supports automated deployments across Python, Node.js, Java, Kotlin, and other AWS SDKs, by capturing attribution for API-driven workloads and complements Partner Revenue Measurement’s Resource Tagging and AWS Marketplace Metering integration capabilities.

Partner Revenue Measurement is generally available in all commercial regions. To learn more about User Agent string implementation, visit the User Agent implementation guide and services supported.
