A streamlined Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat) server environment optimized for EC2 compute instances. Configured with standard cloud-init and essential system utilities, providing a stable and transparent foundation for application hosting, container nodes, and general Linux workloads.
Need a reliable, ready-to-use Linux baseline on AWS? This Amazon Machine Image (AMI) delivers an Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat) server environment structured for quick deployment and predictable operational management.
Instead of troubleshooting image launch details, you get an instance ready for immediate SSH access, standard package repository management, and baseline operations right out of the console.
Key Characteristics:
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Release: Built on the long-term support release, featuring the updated Linux kernel and security baseline.
Cloud Integration: Standard cloud-init initialization enabled for smooth EC2 metadata reading and SSH key injection on first boot.
Clean Footprint: Kept strictly free of extraneous third-party bloat, giving administrators full root authority and clear resource margins to deploy custom software, web stacks, or databases.
Whether you are launching lightweight development instances, general web nodes, or standard compute workers, this image provides a solid starting point without unnecessary overhead.
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. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
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 a hardened Ubuntu 24.04 image running on your chosen Amazon EC2 instance. Each dimension maps to a single EC2 instance type, so pricing scales with the size and capability you select. General-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, GPU, and machine-learning instance families are all available. Larger instance sizes carry higher hourly rates because they provide more vCPUs, memory, or specialized hardware. You run only the instances you need and stop paying when you shut them down. Choose the instance type that fits your workload's compute, memory, or accelerator requirements.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit include for a given instance type?
Each hourly unit covers the hardened Ubuntu 24.04 software license running on one Amazon EC2 instance of that type. You pay for each hour the instance runs. The rate reflects that specific instance's vCPU, memory, and any GPU or accelerator hardware. Underlying AWS infrastructure charges are billed separately by AWS.
Am I charged when my instance is stopped or shut down?
The hourly software charge meters running time only. When you stop or shut down an instance, the software charge stops accruing. Note that AWS may still bill separately for attached storage on a stopped instance, but the hardened Ubuntu software license charges running hours only.
If I switch to a larger instance type, how does my cost change?
Each instance type has its own hourly rate. Moving to a larger size means launching a different instance type, so the new hourly rate applies from that point. Larger sizes cost more per hour because they provide more vCPUs, memory, or accelerator hardware. The change is manual — you choose which instance to run.

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.
