Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month. See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour for a machine image running Oracle Linux 9.8. Pricing is billed per hour based on the EC2 instance type you choose to run it on. Each listed dimension maps to a specific AWS instance size, from small shared instances to bare metal and memory- or compute-heavy machines. Larger instances with more CPU, memory, or accelerators carry higher hourly rates. You only pay for the hours each instance runs, so cost scales with the size and number of instances you launch. There is no upfront commitment or fixed term.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit include when I run this Oracle Linux 9.8 image?
Each unit is one running EC2 instance of the type you select, billed per hour. The rate covers the Oracle Linux 9.8 machine image on that instance size. Underlying AWS compute, storage, and network fees are separate. You pick the instance type to match your CPU, memory, or accelerator needs.
Am I charged for the software when an instance is stopped or paused?
Hourly software charges apply only while an instance runs. Stopped or paused instances stop accruing the per-hour software rate. You may still incur separate AWS storage fees for attached volumes, but the machine image itself meters running time only.
If I run several instances of different sizes, how does my bill add up?
Each running instance bills independently at its own hourly rate for its instance type. Costs add together across every instance you launch. Total cost depends on how many instances run, their sizes, and how long each stays active. Larger instances carry higher hourly rates than smaller ones.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
