Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this Ubuntu 24 image bundled with the GigaOps Security Agent. Pricing is usage-based, so charges accrue only while an instance runs. Each dimension maps to one AWS EC2 instance type, spanning general purpose, compute, memory, storage, GPU, high-memory, and machine-learning families. Larger instance sizes within a family carry higher hourly rates because they provide more compute, memory, or specialized hardware. You choose the instance type that fits your workload, and the software rate applies on top of standard AWS infrastructure charges. No upfront commitment applies.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each dimension bills one running EC2 instance of the named type per hour. The rate covers the Ubuntu 24 image plus the GigaOps Security Agent. It does not include the underlying AWS compute charge, which AWS bills separately. Instance size and family determine the software rate.
The software rate meters running hours only. A fully stopped instance stops accruing software charges. Note that AWS may still charge for attached storage or other resources while the instance is stopped, but that is separate from this listing's hourly software fee.
Larger sizes provide more virtual CPUs, memory, or specialized hardware such as GPUs. The hourly software rate scales with the instance size you select. You pick the type matching your workload, and switching to a different type changes the rate on your next running hours.
