You pay by the hour for this hardened Ubuntu 26.04 LTS image. Billing is usage-based, so charges accrue only while an instance runs. Every dimension maps to one ARM-based EC2 instance type. You pick the size that fits your workload, from small shared types up to bare metal and many-core options. Larger instances carry more compute, memory, or storage, so the hourly rate scales with the instance you select. Instance families cover general purpose, compute, memory, storage, and GPU needs. The software rate stays tied to the chosen instance; separate AWS infrastructure charges apply on top.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What resource does one hourly unit map to?
Each dimension maps to one ARM-based EC2 instance type running the hardened Ubuntu 26.04 LTS image. One unit is one running instance of the size you pick, billed per hour. The number of CPUs, memory, and storage depends on the instance family and size you select.
Am I charged when my instance is stopped or paused?
The software rate meters running time only. A fully stopped instance accrues no software charge. When you restart it, hourly billing resumes. Note that separate AWS charges, such as storage for a stopped instance's volumes, still apply on top of the software rate.
What is included in the software rate and what costs extra?
The software rate covers the hardened Ubuntu 26.04 LTS image on the chosen instance type. It does not include AWS infrastructure charges for compute, storage, or data transfer. Those AWS costs bill separately on the same invoice. Support is available by opening a ticket with your AWS subscription ID.
