This product has charges associated with it for the AWS infrastructure used to run this free AMI; no Hanwei Marketplace software fee applies. Hanwei prepares a CentOS Stream 10 minimal image with documented utilities, a versioned security-hardening baseline, credential-free construction, build-date package recording, and bounded EC2 validation.
This free product provides the CentOS Stream 10 repository snapshot, reduced server package set, and command-line utilities identified in the published release manifest, delivered as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) by Hanwei. The image applies Hanwei's versioned security-hardening baseline, records its build-date package state, and is constructed without embedded customer credentials or account-specific configuration.
No Hanwei Marketplace software fee applies to this AMI. Customers pay for EC2, EBS, data transfer, public IPv4, and other AWS infrastructure or services they use. Hanwei's image preparation includes minimal package selection, documented utility integration, application of the verified security-hardening baseline, build-date package recording, credential-free AMI construction, repeatable image build, and bounded final-image testing.
What Hanwei Adds to CentOS Stream 10
Reduced server package set: Hanwei prepares a minimal CentOS Stream 10 environment. The final RPM manifest, enabled-service inventory, listening-port report, default target, architecture, kernel, and image-build date define the actual image surface.
Documented utility integration: Hanwei records utilities actually included in the final AMI by package/binary name, exact version or RPM NEVRA, source, path, license/notice status, and verification result. Only utilities appearing in that release manifest are included in the public release scope.
Versioned security-hardening baseline: Hanwei applies a versioned operating-system profile. Only controls, values, exceptions, and effective states verified on the final AMI are included in the published release scope.
Build-date package baseline: The release manifest records the operating-system identity, repositories, installed RPM NEVRAs, kernel, update state, and image-build date. This records a point in time and does not represent the AMI as continuously current after publication or launch.
Credential-free construction: The published AMI contains no reusable customer password, private SSH key, AWS access key, secret access key, session token, customer CLI profile, internal repository credential, cloud-init secret, or account-specific endpoint configuration.
Repeatable construction and bounded EC2 testing: Final-image verification covers EC2 launch and restart, operating-system identity, kernel and package inventory, utility path/version checks, configured access/update/security state, enabled services, listening ports, and credential absence on the recorded EC2 baseline.
Included Software and Configuration
CentOS Stream release and repositories identified in the final release manifest
Kernel and RPM package set identified by exact NEVRA in the final release manifest
Utility packages and binaries identified by exact version or NEVRA in the final release manifest
Hanwei versioned security-hardening configuration
The final release manifest must determine whether net-tools, zip/unzip, wget/curl, vim, tar/gzip, sudo, AWS CLI v2, Python, cloud-init, or any other component is actually included. No graphical environment, application server, web server, database, container runtime, monitoring agent, AWS management agent, encryption, snapshot, backup, restore, performance configuration, SSH configuration, SELinux state, firewall state, or update automation is represented as included unless it appears in the final package manifest and published release scope.
Highlights
A reduced CentOS Stream 10 package set and documented command-line utility inventory are recorded by exact release identity, kernel, RPM manifest, source, path, and version.
Hanwei applies a versioned security-hardening baseline and constructs the free AMI without embedded customer credentials or account-specific configuration.

This listing carries no software charge, so you pay only for the AWS EC2 instance you run it on. Pricing is billed per hour and varies by the instance type you select. The many dimensions listed are not tiers or feature levels. Each one maps to a specific EC2 instance size, from small general-purpose types to large compute, memory, storage, GPU, and machine-learning options. Your hourly cost scales with the compute, memory, and hardware capacity of the instance you choose. Pick the instance that fits your workload; the software itself adds nothing to the bill.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hour of billing cover for a given instance type?
One hour maps to one running EC2 instance of the type you select. Billing meters wall-clock running time per instance. The software itself carries no charge, so the hourly figure reflects the AWS compute cost for that specific instance size only.
Am I charged while an instance is stopped or powered off?
Since the software adds no charge, no software fees accrue at all. For stopped instances, AWS compute charges stop, though attached storage may still bill under standard AWS rates. Running time is what determines your compute cost while the instance is active.
Does moving to a larger instance change my cost per hour?
Yes. Each instance type has its own hourly rate tied to its compute, memory, storage, and GPU capacity. Switching to a larger type raises the hourly cost; switching to a smaller type lowers it. The change takes effect when you launch the new instance.

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.
