Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this software running on a hardened Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 image. Pricing is usage-based, so you are billed only for the hours each instance runs. The dimensions are not tiers or feature levels. Each one maps to a specific EC2 instance type, from small general-purpose sizes to large compute, memory, storage, and GPU-optimized machines. Your hourly rate depends on which instance type you launch. Larger or more specialized instances carry higher hourly rates. You choose the instance size that fits your workload and scale by launching more instances.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each dimension maps to one specific EC2 instance size running the hardened Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 image. Your rate reflects that instance's CPU, memory, storage, and GPU profile. General-purpose, compute, memory, storage, and GPU families are all listed. You pick the size matching your workload.
The software charge meters running hours only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue software charges. You are billed just for the hours each instance actually runs. Stopped instances may still incur separate AWS storage fees for attached volumes, which are billed by AWS, not this software.
Cost scales two ways. You can launch a instance type with more CPU, memory, or GPU, which carries a higher hourly rate. Or you can run more instances of the same type in parallel. Total cost is the sum of running hours across all active instances.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
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.
