You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance type you choose to run this software. The many dimensions are not tiers or feature levels. They map directly to AWS instance sizes across families like general purpose, compute, memory, storage, and accelerated computing. The software itself is the same on every instance. Your hourly rate rises as you select instances with more CPU, memory, or specialized hardware. Smaller instances cost less per hour; larger ones cost more. You pay only for the hours each instance runs, with no upfront commitment.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What software do I actually get on the instance I pay for hourly?
Each instance runs a preconfigured image with the OpenLiteSpeed web server plus Ruby and Rails installed. It includes setup for SSL certificates and rewrite rules. The web server also supports other application types. You access a web-based admin console to manage the server after launch.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or powered off?
The hourly software charge applies only while the instance runs. A fully stopped instance stops accruing software charges. You may still pay separate AWS fees for attached storage or other resources while stopped. The software meters running hours only, with no upfront commitment.
Why are there so many instance-type options, and how do I pick one?
Each option maps to an AWS instance type across families like general purpose, compute, memory, storage, and accelerated computing. The software is identical on all of them. Choose based on the CPU, memory, or hardware your Rails workload needs. Your hourly rate follows the instance size you select.

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.
