Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this hardened OpenVPN image running on Ubuntu 22. The software price stays the same across all choices; what changes is the EC2 instance type you select to run it on. Each listed dimension maps to one AWS instance type, from small general-purpose sizes to large compute, memory, storage, and accelerated families. Your hourly cost scales with the capacity of the instance you pick. You can start small and move to a larger instance as your network demands grow. AWS infrastructure charges apply separately from this software fee.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each unit is one hour of running one EC2 instance of the type you select, loaded with the hardened OpenVPN image on Ubuntu 22. You pay this software fee for every hour the instance runs. The hourly rate is tied to the instance type you choose.
The software fee meters running hours. A fully stopped instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. Stopped instances may still incur separate AWS storage fees for attached volumes. Those AWS infrastructure charges are billed by AWS, not as part of this software fee.
Switching instance types changes your hourly software rate, since each listed dimension maps to one instance type and carries its own rate. Your separate AWS infrastructure charge also changes with the instance size. You can start on a small instance and move up as network demand grows.
