You pay by the hour for support tied to the EC2 instance running Rocky Linux 9. Each dimension maps to a specific EC2 instance type, so pricing follows your chosen hardware. General-purpose, compute, memory, storage, GPU, and high-performance families are all covered. Larger instance sizes carry higher hourly rates than smaller ones in the same family. You are billed only while an instance runs, with no upfront commitment. This lets you match support cost to the exact instances in your workload and scale as you add or resize instances.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does the hourly charge cover, and what is not included in it?
The hourly charge buys support for a Rocky Linux 9 virtual machine on the matching EC2 instance type. You get a support team to help launch and resolve issues. Each VM is audited against security controls. The charge does not include the underlying AWS compute or storage fees, which AWS bills separately.
Am I charged when an instance is stopped or paused?
The support fee meters running hours on the matching EC2 instance type. When an instance is fully stopped, it does not accrue support charges. Stopped instances may still incur AWS storage fees, but those are billed by AWS, not through this listing.
What happens to my cost if I resize an instance to a larger type in the same family?
Each dimension maps to one EC2 instance type. Moving to a larger size means you are billed at that size's hourly rate for the hours it runs. There is no upfront commitment, so cost shifts automatically with the instance types you actually run.
