You pay by the hour for Rocky Linux 9 with vendor support, delivered as an Amazon Machine Image. Pricing follows the EC2 instance type you choose to run. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size, from small general-purpose types like t2.nano and t3.micro up to large memory, compute, storage, GPU, and bare-metal types. Larger instances carry higher hourly rates because they provide more CPU, memory, or specialized hardware. You pick the instance that fits your workload. The software charge is separate from the underlying AWS infrastructure cost. There is no upfront commitment.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit cover for a given instance type?
One unit is one hour of running Rocky Linux 9 on the specific EC2 instance you launch, delivered as an Amazon Machine Image. Each instance type maps to its own hourly software rate. You are billed for each hour that instance runs with the image, plus vendor support.
Am I charged the software fee when my instance is stopped?
The software fee meters running time only. A stopped instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. Underlying AWS storage costs for the attached volume may still apply while stopped. Charges resume when you start the instance again.
Is this pay-as-you-go, and do I commit to a term?
This is usage-based billing with no upfront commitment. You pay per instance-hour for as long as you run the image. You can stop or terminate anytime and stop accruing software charges. This suits variable or short-lived workloads where you do not want a fixed term.
