Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for AlmaLinux 9.6 Extended Security Updates with FIPS support. Billing is usage-based, so charges accrue only while an instance runs. Each pricing dimension maps to a specific EC2 instance type, such as c6a.large, r8i.32xlarge, or t3.medium. The per-hour rate scales with the size and class of the instance you choose. Larger instances carry higher hourly rates than smaller ones in the same family. You select the instance type that fits your workload and pay the matching hourly rate. No upfront commitment or fixed term applies.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The charge covers Extended Security Updates with FIPS support from TuxCare. This includes FIPS-validated cryptographic modules for the kernel and OpenSSL, plus ongoing security patches that keep those modules aligned with the validated status needed for federal compliance.
The software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue the hourly software fee. Charges resume when you start the instance again. Note that underlying AWS storage costs for a stopped instance are separate and fall outside this software rate.
Each dimension maps to one instance type, such as c6a.large or r8i.32xlarge. The hourly rate scales with instance size and class. You pay the rate matching the type you launch. Running several instances bills each one independently at its own rate, added together on one invoice.
