You pay by the hour for each running instance, with no upfront commitment. Your cost depends only on the EC2 instance type you choose to run this software on. The listing offers a wide range of instance families and sizes, from small general-purpose types like t3.micro up to memory-optimized, compute-optimized, storage-optimized, GPU, and high-memory metal instances. Larger or more specialized instances carry a higher hourly rate. You scale cost up or down by picking bigger or smaller instances, or by running more of them. Software charges are billed alongside the underlying AWS infrastructure charges.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one billing unit represent for this software?
One unit is one running EC2 instance measured by the hour. You pick an instance type, and each hour that instance runs adds one hour of software charges. Running more instances multiplies the charges, since each instance meters separately.
Am I charged when an instance is stopped or paused?
Software charges accrue only while an instance runs. Stopped or terminated instances stop the hourly software meter. You may still owe underlying AWS storage fees for stopped instances, but the software license bills running hours only.
How does cost behave when my database workload rises and falls during the day?
The proxy layer and reader nodes scale automatically with workload, adding instances during busy periods and removing them when demand drops, such as at night. Since billing is per running instance-hour, your software charges rise and fall with the number of active instances.

CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."
