AWS Clean Rooms users can now designate which partners pay for specific costs such as SQL queries, PySpark jobs, ML training, and synthetic data generation after collaboration creation. Authorized payers can be added or removed via change requests approved by all collaboration members.

This feature supports multiple authorized payers for certain analyses, enabling tailored cost-sharing arrangements—such as separating payment between complex pharmaceutical research tasks and simpler healthcare data queries. AWS Clean Rooms maintains data privacy while facilitating collaborative analysis across organizational boundaries.
