GigaOps Traffic Monitor on NGINX (Ubuntu 22). Includes real-time request analytics, rate limiting, SSL certificate expiry alerts, and DDoS protection rules. Run a secure, observable NGINX gateway out of the box.
GigaOps Traffic Monitor delivers a hardened NGINX deployment on Ubuntu 22 with integrated traffic intelligence built by Gigabits. It turns a bare NGINX server into a monitored, protected gateway.
Key Features:
Request Analytics: Real-time dashboards of request rates, status codes, top endpoints, and upstream latency.
Rate Limiting: Pre-configured, tunable rate limits to protect against abuse and traffic spikes.
SSL Cert Expiry Alerts: Monitors certificates and alerts 30 days before expiration.
DDoS Protection Rules: Connection limits and pattern-based blocking of malicious traffic.
Security Hardening: Security headers, TLS best practices, and firewall rules on first boot.
One-Command Diagnostics: Run gigaops nginx-report for traffic and health summary.
Ideal For: Teams running NGINX as a web server, reverse proxy, or API gateway who need traffic visibility and built-in protection.

Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month. See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour for this software running on an Amazon EC2 instance. Pricing is tied to the instance type you pick, not to fixed plans or tiers. Each dimension matches one EC2 size, spanning general purpose, compute, memory, storage, GPU, and high-memory families. Larger instances with more CPU, memory, or specialized hardware carry higher hourly rates. Smaller shared-core sizes carry lower rates. You run only what you select, and billing stops when you stop the instance. This lets you match cost to the workload size you need.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit cover for billing?
Each unit is one Amazon EC2 instance of the size you select, billed per hour it runs. The software charge attaches to that single running instance. If you launch several instances, each one meters its own hourly rate separately on the same invoice.
Am I charged when I stop the instance?
The software rate meters running hours only. When you stop the instance, the hourly software charge stops accruing. Stopped instances may still carry underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes, but those are separate from the software licence, which counts active running time.
How does my bill change if I move to a larger instance type?
Rates are set per instance type. Switching to a size with more CPU, memory, or specialized hardware applies that type's higher hourly rate. Moving to a smaller shared-core size applies its lower rate. The change takes effect for whichever instance type you actually run.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
