Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for each running instance of this hardened Rocky Linux 9 image with a bundled security agent. Pricing is not tiered. Instead, you pick an Amazon EC2 instance type that fits your workload, and the hourly software fee is set per instance type. The options span general-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, GPU, machine learning, and high-performance computing families, in sizes from nano up to metal. Larger instances with more vCPUs, memory, or accelerators carry higher hourly rates. You only pay while an instance runs, and you can mix instance types as needed.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The hourly fee covers a hardened Rocky Linux 9 image bundled with a security agent. The image includes updates, firewalls, and network protocols, and launches with one click. The rate is set per instance type you select. Underlying AWS compute and storage charges are billed separately by AWS.
The software fee meters running instance-hours. A stopped or powered-off instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. You pay only while the instance runs. Note that AWS may still bill underlying storage for a stopped instance, but that is separate from this software license.
Yes. The software fee is set per instance type, so switching changes your hourly rate. Larger instances with more vCPUs, memory, or accelerators carry higher rates. You can run several instance types at once, and each is billed at its own per-hour rate.
