Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for the EC2 instance type you run this Oracle 8 image on. There is no upfront fee and no fixed subscription. Each dimension maps to a single AWS instance type, from small burstable options like t2 and t3 up to compute, memory, storage, GPU, and bare-metal families. Your rate scales with the instance you pick, so larger or more capable instances cost more per hour. You choose the instance that fits your workload, and billing follows actual running hours. Software charges apply on top of standard AWS infrastructure charges.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each unit is one running EC2 instance of the type you pick, billed per hour. The charge covers this hardened Oracle 8 image, which is tested against standard security frameworks. AWS infrastructure charges for compute, storage, and data transfer apply separately on top of the software rate.
The software rate meters running instance-hours only. A fully stopped or powered-off instance stops accruing software charges. Underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes may still apply while the instance is stopped, but those are separate from the per-hour software charge.
Cost is driven by which single instance type you run. Each dimension maps to one type across burstable, compute, memory, storage, GPU, and bare-metal families. Larger or more capable instances carry a higher per-hour rate. Running more instances multiplies the charge by the number of running hours.
