Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for Consul running on CentOS Stream 9, packaged as an Amazon Machine Image with support from the vendor. Pricing is usage-based, so you are billed only for the hours each instance runs. The many dimensions map directly to AWS EC2 instance types. You pick the instance size that fits your workload, and the hourly software rate scales with the compute capacity of that instance. Smaller instances carry lower hourly rates; larger memory, compute, GPU, and bare-metal instances carry higher rates. There is no upfront commitment, and you add AWS infrastructure charges separately.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The hourly rate covers the Consul software running on the CentOS Stream 9 image, plus vendor support. You pay AWS separately for the underlying EC2 instance and related infrastructure like storage and data transfer. Both charges appear on your AWS bill.
The software rate meters running instance-hours only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. You may still pay AWS for attached storage while stopped, but that is separate from the software license, which bills active running time.
Each option maps to one AWS EC2 instance type, defined by its compute, memory, GPU, or bare-metal profile. You pick the single instance type that fits your Consul workload. Your hourly software rate follows that instance type's capacity; larger instances carry higher rates.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
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.

Consul - https://www.consul.io/docs Use the following steps:
- To verify Consul is installed, run - Consul
- Follow - https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/consul/get-started-agent
- Start the agent, run command - "consul agent -dev" Output : The logs report that the Consul agent has started and is streaming some log data
- Check the membership of the Consul datacenter by running the command in a new terminal window - "consul members" Output : The output displays your agent, its IP address, its health state, its role in the datacenter,
- Check consistent view of the world, query the HTTP API, which forwards the request to the Consul servers. Run command - "curl localhost:8500/v1/catalog/nodes"
- Stop the Consul agent by using the command : "consul leave" This will gracefully stop the agent, causing it to leave the Consul datacenter and shut down.
