This system baseline includes:
RedHat Enterprise Linux 7 (with latest updates)
DISA RedHat Enterprise Linux STIG (updated quarterly)
OpenJDK (Headless)
Apache Tomcat 9 (updated quarterly)
Please see our FAQ for instructions on switching to a different JDK, if your project requires it.
Highlights
Fully compliant with STIG guidelines
Separate log and home filesystems provide enhanced security
Apache Tomcat instance configured to align with NIST encryption guidelines

You pay by the hour for this hardened Apache Tomcat 9 image running on RedHat Enterprise Linux 8. Pricing follows the EC2 instance type you choose, so there are no fixed tiers or upfront commitments. Each dimension maps to one instance size, from small general-purpose types to large memory-, compute-, storage-, and accelerator-optimized types, plus bare-metal options. Larger instances with more CPU, memory, or specialized hardware carry higher hourly rates. You run only what you need and stop paying when instances stop. The security hardening applies the same across every instance choice.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit cover for this hardened image?
Each hourly unit covers one running EC2 instance of the type you select. The rate combines the hardened Apache Tomcat 9 software on RedHat Enterprise Linux 8 with that instance size. You pay for each hour the instance runs, counted separately per instance.
Am I charged when an instance is stopped or paused?
Software charges accrue only while the instance runs. When you stop an instance, the hourly software charge stops too. Underlying AWS storage or other AWS resources may still bill separately, but the hardened image meters running time only.
Does choosing a larger instance type change what security hardening I get?
No. The same STIG security hardening applies across every instance type. Instance choice affects only your hourly rate, driven by CPU, memory, storage, or accelerator capacity. Larger or specialized instances carry higher hourly rates while delivering identical hardening.

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.
