You pay by the hour for running this software on an Amazon EC2 instance. Pricing is not tiered by features. Instead, each option maps to a specific EC2 instance type, and your hourly rate depends on the instance you choose. Options range from small, general-purpose instances to large compute-, memory-, storage-, and accelerator-optimized instances. Larger instances with more CPU, memory, or GPU capacity carry higher hourly rates. You select the instance that fits your workload and scale up or down as needs change. Vendor support is included with the software.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What resources do I get for the hourly rate I select?
Each option maps to one Amazon EC2 instance type. Your hourly rate reflects that instance's CPU, memory, storage, and any GPU or accelerator capacity. General-purpose, compute-, memory-, storage-, and accelerator-optimized families are all offered. You pick the instance matching your workload's resource needs and run the software on it.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or not running?
The software is metered by running instance-hours. When you stop the instance, software charges stop accruing. You are billed only for hours the instance runs. Underlying AWS storage or other resource fees may still apply while the instance is stopped, but those are separate from the software's hourly rate.
Is this pay-as-you-go, or do I commit to a term upfront?
This is usage-based, pay-as-you-go pricing. You pay per hour for the instance you run, with no upfront term commitment. You can start, stop, or switch instance types as your needs change. This fits variable or short-term workloads where you do not want a fixed commitment.
