Overview
This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for CoreNova hardening, maintenance, validation notes, and seller support.
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Hardened GPU AMI CUDA Ready is a hardened Ubuntu GPU AMI for EC2 machine learning, CUDA development, and GPU compute workloads. It is designed for buyers who want a ready CUDA host baseline without manually installing NVIDIA drivers, CUDA tooling, and operating-system hardening on every instance.
Included baseline
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with NVIDIA GPU driver and CUDA tooling.
- SSH key-only access with root login disabled.
- UFW firewall baseline, auditd, AIDE, rsyslog, and automatic security updates where supported.
- GPU readiness checks such as nvidia-smi and CUDA compiler validation.
- CIS-oriented OpenSCAP notes for buyer-side validation; not official CIS certification.
Best for
- GPU development hosts on G4dn, G5, and P-family EC2 instances.
- ML experiment environments that need CUDA-ready launch behavior.
- Teams that want a hardened Ubuntu base before installing ML frameworks.
Security and operations
The image does not include customer data, private keys, or model weights. Buyers should restrict SSH to trusted administrator networks, review GPU and storage costs before launch, and apply their own workload-level access controls.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this GPU-ready AMI, and the rate depends on which EC2 instance you launch. Each dimension maps to one specific instance type across several GPU families: g4dn, g5, g6, g6e, g6f, p3, p3dn, p4d, p5, p5e, and p5en. Within each family, larger sizes carry higher hourly software rates. You run only the instances you need and stop paying when you stop them. These rates cover the software only. AWS charges separately for EC2 compute, GPU, storage, and data transfer.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each hourly rate covers only the hardened Ubuntu software with CUDA preinstalled, metered on the EC2 instance type you launch. The GPU, compute, EBS storage, and data transfer are billed separately by AWS. One dimension equals running software on one instance of that named type for one hour.
The software rate meters running instance-hours. When you stop an instance, software charges stop too. You pay only while instances run. Note that AWS may still charge for underlying EBS storage on stopped instances, but the software licence meters active runtime only.
Each dimension maps to one EC2 instance type across families like g4dn, g5, g6, p3, p4d, and p5. Larger sizes within a family offer more GPU and compute and carry higher hourly software rates. Pick the size matching your GPU and memory needs; you can switch instances between runs.
