You pay by the hour for this hardened Rocky Linux 9 image, billed per running instance. There is no upfront commitment or fixed term. Pricing is organized by Amazon EC2 instance type, so the rate you pay depends on the instance you launch. Choices span general-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, GPU, high-performance computing, and machine-learning families, in sizes from nano up to metal. Larger instances carry higher hourly rates than smaller ones in the same family. You select the instance that fits your workload, and the software charge applies alongside the underlying AWS compute cost.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does the hourly rate for an instance type actually cover?
The hourly rate covers the hardened Rocky Linux 9 software license on that chosen Amazon EC2 instance type. It meters each running instance per hour. This software charge is separate from, and applies on top of, the underlying AWS compute cost for the same instance.
Am I charged the hourly software fee when an instance is stopped?
The software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped or powered-off instance does not accrue the hourly software fee. You may still incur underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes while the instance is stopped, but the software license bills active hours.
Does running more instances change the per-hour rate I pay?
No. Each running instance bills at the hourly rate for its own instance type. Running several instances adds their hourly charges together on one invoice. The rate per instance does not drop or rise based on how many you run at once.
