This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for image hardening, maintenance, and support. Envoy proxy on Amazon Linux 2023, security-hardened for production: minimal package set, SSH key-only access, IMDSv2-only, admin interface on localhost only, runs as a non-root user, and continuously patched images.
Envoy Proxy (Hardened) on Amazon Linux 2023 is a production-ready, security-hardened image of the Envoy edge and service proxy, maintained and supported by Derek Coleman & Associates Inc.
This is repackaged open-source software. Envoy is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) graduated project and is distributed under the Apache License 2.0. Envoy is a trademark of The Linux Foundation; this listing is not endorsed by or affiliated with the CNCF or The Linux Foundation. This product bundles the unmodified upstream Envoy release binary on a hardened Amazon Linux 2023 base; the charges associated with this listing are for image hardening, continuous patching, vulnerability scanning, and business-day support - not for the underlying open-source software, which remains free.
Hardening baseline: minimal package footprint, SSH key-only access (password authentication disabled), IMDSv2 enforced, Envoy running as a dedicated non-root user with only the bind capability, the admin interface bound to 127.0.0.1 only, host firewall exposing only web ports, and no default credentials anywhere. Images are rebuilt, scanned for HIGH and CRITICAL vulnerabilities, and republished on a regular cadence so that new launches start current. The shipped config serves a placeholder response on port 80; supply your listeners, clusters, and routes in /etc/envoy/envoy.yaml and manage the service with systemd.
Highlights
Production-ready: systemd-managed Envoy 1.38; config validated at build with envoy --mode validate.
Security-hardened at build time: minimal packages, key-only SSH, IMDSv2-only, non-root service user, admin interface on localhost only.
Continuously patched: rebuilt, vulnerability-scanned, and republished on a regular cadence.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
You pay by the hour for the running instance, with no subscription and no minimum. The three dimensions map to three EC2 instance sizes: c7i.xlarge (4 vCPU / 8 GiB), c7i.2xlarge (8 vCPU / 16 GiB), and c7i.4xlarge (16 vCPU / 32 GiB). Pricing scales with the size you choose, so a larger instance carries an hourly rate. Charges stop when you terminate the instance. AWS infrastructure charges for compute, storage, and network are billed separately by AWS.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What do I actually pay for, since Envoy itself is free open-source software?
The hourly charge covers image hardening, continuous patching, vulnerability scanning, and business-day support. The underlying Envoy binary is unmodified upstream software and remains free. You are paying for the maintained, security-hardened image on Amazon Linux 2023, not the open-source project itself.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or terminated?
The software charge meters only while the instance runs. Charges stop when you terminate the instance. There is no subscription and no minimum. Stopped instances may still incur AWS storage fees for the EBS volume, but those are billed separately by AWS, not as software charges.
What is not included in the hourly software price?
AWS infrastructure charges for compute, storage, and network are billed separately by AWS under your own account. Support covers image operation, the hardening baseline, and launch issues by email on business days. It does not cover your own Envoy configuration, applications, or modifications you make to the image.

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.
Version release notes
[Security] Refreshed image: rebuilt on the latest hardened Amazon Linux 2023 baseline; all OS packages current at build.

Usage instructions
Launch from AWS Marketplace (1-Click or EC2 console).
Connect via SSH with your EC2 key pair: ssh -i <key> ec2-user@<public-ip>. Root login is disabled; use sudo.
Envoy serves a placeholder on port 80. Edit /etc/envoy/envoy.yaml to define your listeners, clusters, and routes; validate with: envoy --mode validate -c /etc/envoy/envoy.yaml, then: sudo systemctl restart envoy. The admin interface is bound to 127.0.0.1:9901.
Verify: curl -I http://<public-ip> returns the placeholder response, or: sudo systemctl status envoy.
Sensitive data: there are no passwords or secrets anywhere in this product. Logs under /var/log may contain client IPs - treat as personal data.
Backup: snapshot the EBS volume (it contains all configuration and data).
Resources: a single instance uses 1 EC2 instance and 1 gp3 EBS volume; no other AWS resources are created.
