Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for running Oracle Linux 8.8 on AWS. Pricing is tied to the EC2 instance type you choose, not to feature tiers or plans. Each dimension maps to one instance size, spanning general-purpose (m-series, t-series), compute-optimized (c-series), memory-optimized (r-series, x-series), storage-optimized (d-series, i-series), accelerated computing (g-series, p-series), and high-memory (u-series) families. Smaller instances with fewer CPU and memory resources cost less per hour; larger instances and bare-metal options cost more. You only pay for the hours each instance runs, with no upfront commitment.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You pay for the Oracle Linux 8.8 software license running on the EC2 instance size you pick. Each dimension maps to one instance type, defining its CPU and memory. The image comes as a minimal install, ready to deploy. AWS compute charges apply separately.
The hourly software charge applies only while the instance runs. Stopped or paused instances do not accrue software charges. Underlying AWS storage fees for the attached volume may still apply. Charges resume automatically when you restart the instance.
Your hourly rate follows the instance type you run. Switching to a larger size or bare-metal option raises the rate; moving to a smaller size lowers it. Change happens when you launch or resize an instance. You only pay the rate tied to the size currently running.
