Overview
Ignition Cloud Edition combines the power of the most effective industrial software and the convenience of the world's most trusted cloud computing services. Cloud Edition is a cloud platform complement to extend your Standard Ignition on-premise platform. Purchased and installed through the AWS Marketplace, it's hosted on AWS' secure cloud platform and billed through AWS on a periodic basis for time used.
Use the Standard Ignition platform to rock low-code development of industrial applications like SCADA or MES, and to roll out scalable solutions with instantly web-deployed industrial and mobile clients across enterprises. Its supervisory capabilities connect all your data and allow you to monitor performance, control processes, and visualize data on custom dashboards. Standard Ignition's on-prem prowess also includes built-in data acquisition tools that help you connect PLCs, leverage Industrial IoT, and turn databases into historians.
Add Cloud Edition for even more cloud capabilities and the option to connect your data to analytics tools like Machine Learning. Extend your enterprise operations, leverage elastic architectures that scale easily, and host and deploy solutions on secure cloud platforms.
Ignition Cloud Edition with Standard Ignition is the perfect pairing to extend the possibilities of your industrial operations.
At Inductive Automation, our mission is to create industrial software that empowers you to swiftly turn great ideas into reality by removing technological and economic obstacles. We created Ignition to help you connect people, processes and programs - all from one open and scalable platform with universal compatibility and unlimited potential.
Highlights
- Enterprise Dashboards: Aggregate data from multiple locations, remotely monitor performance, and manage your operations all from one central hub providing data to more stakeholders no matter where they are located. Gain maximum visibility over enterprise operations with completely customizable dashboards that display dynamic data and graphical representations of assets.
- Cloud Historian Storage: Use cloud storage to turn your intelligence into a data historian. From there, leverage your cloud storage data to generate periodic-based reports that identify trends or diagnose issues. Or, connect it with cloud analytics tools and services such as machine learning to gain valuable predictive insights.
- Scalable, Elastic Architecture: With Cloud Edition there's no need to purchase expensive server hardware upfront, as it's provided and maintained by the cloud provider. So when you need more computer power, the cloud servers enable you to develop and deploy applications faster and can auto-scale your needs instantly.

Pricing
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
Dimension | Cost/hour |
|---|---|
m6i.xlarge Recommended | $1.93 |
m5.4xlarge | $3.58 |
m5.large | $1.40 |
m5.xlarge | $1.93 |
m6i.4xlarge | $3.58 |
m6i.large | $1.40 |
m5.2xlarge | $2.67 |
t3.medium | $0.91 |
m6i.2xlarge | $2.67 |
Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for the compute instance that runs Ignition Cloud Edition. Pricing scales with the AWS EC2 instance you select, so the dimensions are instance sizes, not feature tiers. Options span two instance families, m5 and m6i, in sizes from t3.medium up to 4xlarge. Larger instances offer more CPU and memory and carry a higher hourly rate. You choose the size that matches your workload and can scale up or down over time. All sizes include the same bundled modules and support.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You pay for hourly usage of the running instance. When the instance is stopped, the hourly software charge stops accruing. Underlying AWS storage or other resources may still incur separate AWS fees, but the Cloud Edition charge meters running time only.
Each rate covers Ignition Cloud Edition with its bundled modules, including visualization, reporting, historian, and MQTT and OPC UA connectivity. It also includes support you activate through your cloud account. It does not include device drivers or Edge licenses, which you purchase separately.
You can run redundancy by starting two separate EC2 instances, likely using two different images. Each running instance meters its own hourly charge. So a redundant setup roughly doubles the hourly cost, since you pay per active instance.

Transparent Flat Folders and Clear Gateway Separation Make Navigation Easy
Reviewed on Aug 21, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The transparent flat folders in v8.3.6, and the clear separation between the Gateway and its tags, and the application views.

I think there can be more consistency/uniformity in saving settings in the various sections, and I would like to see more "inline" help in the expression functions, similar to how Microsoft Excel guides you through the formula syntax when entering.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collecting as much data from our production process for statistical analysis and quality control.
