Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this Ubuntu 20 remote desktop with no GPU. Pricing follows the AWS EC2 instance type you choose to run it on. Each listed dimension maps to a specific instance size, from small general-purpose types to large memory-, compute-, and storage-optimized ones. Your hourly rate rises as you pick instances with more CPU, memory, or storage. You are not locked into a fixed size; you select the instance that fits your workload. Billing is usage-based, so you pay only for the hours the desktop runs on the chosen instance.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each hourly unit covers the software running on one EC2 instance of the size you pick. DCV is licensed by concurrent DCV desktops created, using a floating license. Licensing is not tied to named users, so you can create desktops as needed on the running instance.
Hourly software charges apply only while the desktop runs on a chosen instance. When you stop or power off the instance, software charges stop. Underlying AWS storage fees for the stopped instance may still apply separately, since billing meters running time only.
You choose one instance type per running desktop, and the hourly rate maps to that size. Moving to an instance with more CPU, memory, or storage raises the rate for all hours the desktop runs on it. The change is manual: you select the instance, not a tier upgrade.
