The Foundation HIPAA Compliant Oracle Linux 8 is designed to help organizations meet the stringent requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), enhancing the protection of sensitive health information.
Overview
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a set of regulations that establishes national standards for protecting the privacy and security of individuals' sensitive health information. HIPAA compliance is mandatory for any entity that deals with protected health information (PHI), including healthcare providers, insurers, and their business associates. Adhering to HIPAA involves implementing measures such as secure data transmission, access controls, regular audits, and proper disposal of PHI.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for HIPAA Compliant Oracle Linux 8, based on the AWS EC2 instance type you run. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size, so pricing scales with the compute, memory, and storage you choose. Smaller instances like t3.nano cost less per hour, while large and metal instances like x2idn.metal or p5.48xlarge cost more. You are billed only for the hours each instance runs, with no upfront commitment. The software carries the same security hardening across all instance types, so your choice depends on the workload size you need.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
One unit is one running EC2 instance of the named type, billed per hour. The instance name reflects its compute, memory, and storage size. For example, t3.nano is a small instance, while x2idn.metal is a large bare-metal server. You pay the hourly rate for each instance that is running.
Software charges accrue only while an instance runs. A stopped or powered-off instance does not incur software fees for that idle time. Underlying AWS storage costs may still apply separately. The software licence meters running hours only, so your bill reflects active usage.
No. Every instance type runs the same HIPAA Compliant Oracle Linux 8 image with identical security hardening. The vendor applies standard hardening frameworks across all sizes. Your instance choice affects compute, memory, and storage capacity and the hourly rate, not the software features included.
