Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for the instance type you run. Each dimension maps to one AWS EC2 instance size, and the software price scales with the compute capacity you choose. Smaller instances like general-purpose or burstable types cost less per hour than large memory-, compute-, storage-, or accelerator-optimized types. You can pick from hundreds of options across EC2 families, including bare-metal sizes. Pricing is tied purely to runtime, so your cost depends on which instance you select and how many hours it runs.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You get a hardened Rocky Linux 9 virtual machine image running on the EC2 instance size you pick. Each dimension maps to one EC2 instance type, defining its CPU, memory, and storage. The listing includes an OpenSCAP security report with the hardened image.
The software price meters running hours only. When you stop an instance, the hourly software charge stops. Underlying AWS storage fees may still apply for the stopped volume, but the software license bills active runtime. Your cost resumes when you start the instance again.
Each instance type carries its own hourly software rate tied to its compute capacity. Moving to a larger size changes your hourly rate to that type's rate. There is no commitment, so switching takes effect for the hours you run the new instance.

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.

The data saved on the volumes is not encrypted by default. All instance authentication must use key pair access, not password-based authentication. AMIs does not contain passwords, authentication keys, key pairs, security keys, or other credentials. PasswordAuthentication is set to NO in sshd_config. The application does not make use of any encryption techniques.
Troubleshooting Navigate to your Amazon EC2 console and verify that you're in the correct region. Choose Instance and select your launched instance. Select the server to display your metadata page and choose the Status checks tab at the bottom of the page to review if your status checks passed or failed. Or Select monitor an troubleshoot and select get system log to see the system log or select get instance screenshot to see state of your screen at the current time
