Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance type you run. Each dimension maps to one instance size, and the software fee is billed on top of standard AWS infrastructure charges. Pricing scales with instance capacity, so smaller shared-CPU instances cost less per hour than large compute-, memory-, storage-, or GPU-optimized instances. This lets you match the machine size to your workload and change instance types as needs shift. All dimensions include the same Oracle Linux 8.2 image and 24/7 support with a 24-hour response SLA.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each dimension covers one EC2 instance type running the Oracle Linux 8.2 image. You get the OS with current security patches, preinstalled AWS CLI, CloudWatch Agent, Systems Manager Agent, Cloud Init, a first-boot package update script, and 24/7 support with a 24-hour response SLA.
The hourly software fee meters running time only. A stopped or powered-off instance does not accrue software charges. You may still pay standard AWS storage fees for attached volumes while the instance is stopped, since those are separate from this listing's software charge.
Yes. Each dimension maps to one instance type, and the fee is billed per hour with no upfront commitment. You can change instance types as your workload shifts. Billing then follows the hourly rate for whichever instance type you run at that time.
