Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for Oracle Linux 8.9 running on your chosen Amazon EC2 instance type. Each dimension maps to one EC2 instance type, so pricing scales with the compute you select. Smaller shared-CPU types like the t2 and t3 families cost less per hour. Larger general-purpose (m-family), compute-optimized (c-family), memory-optimized (r- and x-families), storage (d- and i-families), and accelerated (g-, p-, inf-, trn-family) instances cost more per hour as size and resources rise. You pick the instance that fits your workload and are billed only for the hours you run.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each dimension covers the Oracle Linux 8.9 software license plus vendor support for one running Amazon EC2 instance of that type. The hourly rate reflects the instance size you pick. You add the separate AWS charge for the underlying compute yourself.
The hourly software fee meters only while the instance runs. A stopped or paused instance does not accrue Oracle Linux 8.9 software charges. AWS may still bill separately for attached storage. Charges resume automatically when you start the instance again.
Yes. Your rate follows the instance type you run. Switching to a bigger type applies that type's hourly rate for the hours it runs. Smaller shared-CPU types cost less per hour; larger memory-, compute-, storage-, and accelerator-optimized types cost more. You control this by choosing the instance.
