Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for Oracle Linux 8 running on the EC2 instance type you choose. Each dimension maps to one specific AWS instance size. The hourly rate covers the software and vendor support, and it scales with the instance you pick. Larger instances with more CPU, memory, storage, or GPU carry higher hourly rates than smaller ones. You are billed only for the hours each instance runs. There is no upfront commitment. To change your cost, select a different instance type that fits your workload's compute, memory, or accelerator needs.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You get an Oracle Linux 8 machine image running on the AWS EC2 instance size named in that dimension. The rate bundles the operating system, vendor support, and the software license. Each dimension maps to one specific instance size, such as its vCPU, memory, storage, and any GPU configuration.
The hourly software charge meters running time only. A stopped or terminated instance stops accruing the per-hour software fee. Note that separate AWS charges, such as storage for the attached volume, may still apply while the instance is stopped. Those AWS infrastructure fees are billed by AWS, not by this listing.
Each instance type is priced separately by the hour. If you switch, billing follows the new dimension's rate for the hours it runs. Sizes with more CPU, memory, storage, or GPU carry higher rates. The change is manual — you launch the instance size you want. There is no upfront commitment.
