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.
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 the EC2 instance type that runs your managed Wazuh deployment. Pricing scales with the compute size you pick, not with users or data volume. Each listed dimension maps to one AWS instance type across families like compute-optimized (c), memory-optimized (r, x), storage (i, d), general purpose (m, t), and accelerated (g, p, inf, trn). Hourly rates rise as an instance adds CPU, memory, or specialized hardware. You choose the instance that matches your monitoring workload, and billing follows actual hours used.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit cover, and what runs on the instance I pick?
Each unit is one EC2 instance of the chosen type, billed per hour. That instance runs a dedicated, managed Wazuh deployment for SIEM and security monitoring. The software stays standard and your data stays in your cloud account, with provisioning, patching, backups, and monitoring handled.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped, for example during off-hours?
The hourly software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue software charges. Stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes, but those are separate from this listing's hourly rate.
Does my cost depend on how many users or how much log data I monitor?
No. Cost follows only the instance type you select and the hours it runs. Pricing does not vary with the number of users, hosts monitored, or log volume. A heavily used instance costs the same hourly rate as a quiet one of the same type.

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.
