Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this software running on Ubuntu 22 with the GigaOps Traffic Monitor. Pricing is not tiered. Instead, each dimension maps to a specific Amazon EC2 instance type, and you pick the one that fits your workload. The hourly rate changes with the instance you choose. Smaller instances like t2.nano cost less per hour, while larger compute, memory, storage, and GPU instances cost more. Your total depends on the instance selected and the number of hours you run it. You can switch instance types as your needs change.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You get the NGINX web server on Ubuntu 22 with the GigaOps Traffic Monitor, running on the Amazon EC2 instance type you select. The hourly rate covers the software license. The instance's CPU, memory, storage, and any GPU depend on which type you pick.
The software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue software charges. You may still pay underlying AWS storage fees for the stopped instance's disk. Charges resume when you start the instance again.
Each instance type carries its own hourly rate. Larger compute, memory, storage, or GPU instances bill at a higher hourly rate than smaller ones. When you switch, you pay the new type's rate for the hours it runs. There is no upfront commitment tying you to one type.
