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 this software, billed per running instance. The 21 dimensions map to different EC2 instance types, so your rate depends on the compute size you choose. Options span burstable T2 and T3 families, general-purpose M3, M4, and M5, compute-optimized C3, C4, and C5, and memory-optimized R3, R4, and R5. Smaller sizes like t3.nano and t2.micro cost less per hour, while larger sizes like t2.2xlarge cost more. You scale by picking a bigger or smaller instance. Charges accrue only while an instance runs.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit cover for this software?
One unit is one running EC2 instance of the size you select. You pay the hourly software rate for each instance while it runs. Each instance is billed separately, so running two instances doubles the software charge for that hour.
Am I charged when my instance is stopped or paused?
The software rate meters running hours only. Fully stopped instances do not accrue the hourly software charge. Stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes, but those are separate from this software's hourly charge.
What support is included with this listing?
The listing includes maintenance support from the vendor. Their engineers help with version upgrades, security upgrades, and vulnerability handling for the deployed instance. Support is described as available around the clock. Contact the vendor for specifics on response times and scope for your setup.

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.
Version release notes
Try one unit of this product for 5 days. There will be no software charges for that unit, but AWS infrastructure charges still apply. Free Trials will automatically convert to a paid subscription upon expiration and you will be charged for additional usage above the free units provided.
Additional details
Usage instructions
Launch an EC2 instance from this AWS Marketplace AMI. Ensure that your Security Group allows inbound SSH (TCP port 22). Connect to the instance using your EC2 key pair:
ssh -i /path/to/your-key.pem ubuntu@<PUBLIC_IP>
Create and activate a Python virtual environment:
python3 -m venv ~/venv
source ~/venv/bin/activate
Verify the installed package:
pip show httpbin
To install or upgrade packages inside the virtual environment, use pip as needed.
