Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this Ubuntu 22 image bundled with a security agent. Pricing is tied to the AWS EC2 instance type you launch, not to a fixed plan or tier. Each dimension maps to one instance size, spanning general purpose (m, t), compute-optimized (c), memory-optimized (r, x, u, z), storage (d, i, h), and accelerated computing (g, p, inf, trn, f, vt) families. Larger instances with more CPU, memory, or specialized hardware bill at higher hourly rates. You are charged only while an instance runs, and you can pick any size to match your workload.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You pay for each hour an EC2 instance runs this Ubuntu 22 image with its security agent. One hour maps to one running instance of the size you selected. The rate reflects that instance type's CPU, memory, and hardware. Partial hours and metering follow standard AWS EC2 usage rules.
The hourly software charge applies only while an instance runs. Stopped or paused instances do not accrue this software fee. Underlying AWS costs, such as storage for the instance volume, may still apply while it is stopped, but the software meters running time only.
Each dimension maps to one instance type, so your rate follows whichever size you launch. Moving to a size with more CPU, memory, or specialized hardware bills at that type's higher hourly rate. The change takes effect when you run the new instance; there is no tier upgrade step.
