Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for support tied to your running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS instance. Each dimension maps to a specific EC2 instance type, so your rate follows the instance size and family you choose. Smaller shared instances like t1.micro and m1.small carry lower hourly rates. Compute, memory, storage, GPU, and high-memory metal families scale up from there. There are no tiers or upfront commitments. Your hourly charge depends only on which instance type you run. This billing covers vendor support for the packaged, ready-to-deploy image.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each dimension maps to one EC2 instance type running the packaged Ubuntu 26.04 LTS image. You pay per hour for each running instance of that type. The charge covers vendor support for the ready-to-deploy image, not the underlying AWS compute, which AWS bills separately.
The hourly software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue the vendor support charge. You may still pay AWS for attached storage while the instance is stopped, but that is separate from this listing's hourly rate.
You open a support ticket with the vendor. Include your AWS subscription ID and the product name, and describe the issue in detail. A representative then follows up. This support is what the hourly charge on your chosen instance type covers.
