Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for the EC2 instance running this preconfigured Moodle image. Pricing scales with the instance type you pick, not the software itself. Each dimension maps to one AWS instance size across families like t2, t3, m4, m5, c4, c5, r4, r5, i3, x1, p2, p3, g3, d2, f1, h1, and z1d. Smaller instances fit light workloads; larger ones add vCPUs, memory, storage, or GPU capacity for heavier use. You choose based on your expected traffic and performance needs. Since billing is usage-based, you can stop running and stop charges anytime.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You get a preconfigured, hardened Moodle learning platform running on one EC2 instance of the size you pick. The instance determines vCPUs, memory, storage, and any GPU capacity. The software image is preinstalled and managed through the Websoft9 console, so you run Moodle without manual setup.
The software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue hourly software charges. You may still pay underlying AWS storage fees for the attached volume while the instance sits stopped. Starting the instance resumes hourly charges automatically.
Each dimension maps to one instance size, so changing size means changing which instance you run. You stop the instance, resize it to another supported type, then restart. Billing then follows the new instance type's hourly rate. No separate software upgrade step applies.
