AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
This listing uses usage-based pricing tied to a single compute dimension: the m5.2xlarge instance, billed hourly. You pay for each hour the software runs on that instance size. There are no separate tiers, quantity commitments, or add-on dimensions to select. Cost scales directly with how long you run the deployment. The software delivers enterprise backup and recovery for on-premises, edge, and cloud data. It protects workloads including virtual machines, physical servers, databases, and cloud applications, with recovery and ransomware resilience features included as you run the instance.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does the m5.2xlarge hourly rate map to in compute terms?
You pay for one m5.2xlarge instance for each hour the software runs. That instance size provides a fixed amount of vCPU and memory. Cost is tied to running time on that single instance size, not to the number of workloads, servers, or virtual machines you protect.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or the deployment is idle?
Software charges accrue per hour the instance runs. When you fully stop the instance, hourly software charges stop. Underlying AWS resources, such as attached storage, may still incur separate AWS fees even while the instance is stopped. The software licence meters running time only.
What backup and recovery capabilities do I get while running this instance?
You get enterprise backup and recovery for on-premises, edge, and cloud data. It protects virtual machines, physical servers, databases, and cloud applications. Features include instant recovery to any point in time and ransomware resilience, all delivered as you run the single instance.
