You pay by the hour for the EC2 instance type you run this Oracle Linux 8.8 image on. Each dimension maps to one instance type, from small burstable options like t2.nano through large memory, compute, storage, and GPU families. Pricing scales with the size and capability of the instance you choose. Larger instances with more vCPUs, memory, or specialized hardware carry higher hourly rates. You are billed only for the hours each instance runs, so total cost depends on your instance selection and how long you keep it running.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit cover for this Oracle Linux 8.8 image?
Each hourly unit covers the software running on one EC2 instance of the type you select. You pick one dimension, such as m5.large or c6i.xlarge, and pay that rate for every hour that single instance runs. Running several instances multiplies the charge across all of them.
Am I charged when my instance is stopped or powered off?
The hourly software rate meters running time only. A stopped or powered-off instance does not accrue this software charge. Note that attached AWS storage, such as EBS volumes, may still incur separate AWS infrastructure fees even while the instance is stopped.
What happens to my cost if I move to a bigger instance type?
Switching instance families or sizes changes your hourly rate to that of the new dimension. Instances with more vCPUs, memory, or specialized hardware like GPUs carry higher hourly rates. The change takes effect when you launch the new instance type; you are not billed retroactively.
