Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this hardened RHEL 8 image, with no upfront commitment. The software price is tied to the EC2 instance type you choose. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size, so your rate scales with the compute, memory, storage, or accelerator capacity of that instance. Smaller shared-core instances carry lower hourly rates, while larger compute, memory, storage, GPU, and bare-metal instances carry higher ones. You select the instance that fits your workload, and billing follows your actual running hours across all listed families.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You get a hardened RHEL 8 image preconfigured by the vendor, including updates, firewalls, and network protocols. The hourly software rate attaches to the EC2 instance type you launch. Each dimension maps to one instance size, so the rate reflects that instance's compute, memory, storage, or accelerator capacity.
The software fee meters running instance-hours only. A stopped or fully powered-off instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. You may still owe separate AWS fees for attached storage while the instance is stopped, but that is billed by AWS, not by this software listing.
The software charge is set per instance type and applies for each running hour. Switching to a different instance changes your hourly software rate to that instance's listed rate. Billing follows your actual running hours, so moving up or down adjusts cost from the moment the new instance runs.
