Our image also contains pre-installed SQL Express as SSMS to manage SQL bases.
Please notice:
SQL Express is limited to 50Gb database
SQL Express does not support Failover Cluster and Log-shipping
SQL Express has no SQL Server Agent
Note:
Some users faced the issue when SQL service after deployment shows "Running" status and the status type was "Automatic", but SQL server does not work. In this case, restart the server one more time, and the issue will be resolved.
If you are experiencing issues regaining access to SQL Server Express as a system administrator, we prepared a script accompanied by a README, which are located on the desktop.

You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance type you run. There is no long-term commitment, and you can stop usage at any time. The eleven options map to different instance sizes and families, so your hourly rate scales with the compute, memory, or GPU capacity you pick. Smaller instances like t3.small and t3.medium suit lighter workloads, while larger options such as c5.2xlarge, c6i.2xlarge, and the GPU-backed g4dn.xlarge handle heavier demands. Standard AWS infrastructure charges apply on top of the software rate for each instance.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What do I actually get with each hourly instance option like t3.small or g4dn.xlarge?
Each option maps to one EC2 instance size running the preconfigured SQL Express Server 17 image on Windows Server 2022. The instance name tells you the compute, memory, and GPU capacity you receive. For example, g4dn.xlarge adds GPU capacity, while t3.small offers lighter compute for smaller workloads.
Am I charged when my instance is stopped or paused?
The software rate meters running time only, billed hourly with no long-term commitment. When you stop an instance, software charges stop too. You can cancel at any time. Stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees, which are separate from the software rate.
How does my bill change if I switch to a different instance type?
Your hourly software rate follows the instance you run. Larger families like c5.2xlarge or c6i.2xlarge carry different rates than smaller ones like t3.medium. To change, you launch a different instance type; the new hourly rate applies from that point. Standard AWS infrastructure charges also apply on top.
