A lightweight, high-performance self-hosted Git service and DevOps platform, pre-configured on a secured CentOS 9 environment with enterprise support by ThinkCloud.
Gitea on CentOS 9 is a premium, ready-to-deploy Amazon Machine Image (AMI) designed for teams that require a fast, reliable, and easy-to-manage Git service. Known for its low resource usage and high performance, Gitea provides a comprehensive set of features including repository management, code review, issue tracking, and built-in CI/CD pipelines (Gitea Actions).
Maintained and optimized by ThinkCloud, this AMI is built on a hardened CentOS 9 foundation. We have pre-configured the environment for maximum efficiency, ensuring that the Gitea binary and its underlying database are tuned for the AWS cloud. By hosting Gitea on your own instance, you maintain total control over your source code, private repositories, and development workflows.
Gitea is the ideal alternative to resource-heavy platforms, offering a "Go-native" experience that is both incredibly fast and stable. With ThinkCloud's enterprise support, you can scale your development infrastructure with confidence, knowing your version control system is secured and optimized.

You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance size you run. Gitea comes preinstalled on CentOS 9, and each dimension maps to a specific instance type. The nano options (t3.nano, t3a.nano) offer the least compute, scaling up through micro, small, medium, and large sizes. Larger instances provide more CPU and memory for higher workloads. The t3 and t3a families run in parallel at each size, giving you a choice of processor type. Billing is usage-based, so charges accrue only while an instance runs. This vendor also provides support for the deployment.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What do the t3 and t3a instance dimensions each provide for my hourly rate?
Each dimension maps to one running EC2 instance of that size. Sizes scale from nano through large, adding CPU and memory at each step. The t3 family uses one processor type and t3a uses another. You pick one instance type and pay the hourly rate for that size.
Am I charged when my Gitea instance is stopped or paused?
Software charges accrue only while an instance runs. When you stop an instance, hourly software charges stop. You may still pay underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes, but the software meter counts running time only.
How does the hourly billing work across the different instance sizes?
You pay per instance-hour with no upfront commitment. Charges accrue by the hour for whichever instance type you run. Larger sizes carry a higher hourly rate for more CPU and memory. This suits variable workloads where you start and stop instances as needed.
