Key Use Cases
Startup Teams Shipping Microservices A small engineering team running a Node.js API behind an Nginx reverse proxy can launch this AMI on a t3.medium, pull their images, and have a working multi-container stack within minutes - no time spent on OS hardening or Docker installation.
CI/CD Build Environments DevOps engineers needing ephemeral Docker hosts for continuous integration pipelines can use this image as a base, reducing pipeline setup from manual configuration steps to a single AMI launch.
Isolated Development and Testing Developers who need secure, reproducible container environments for testing distributed applications benefit from the pre-hardened configuration without managing security settings themselves.
Getting Started
- Launch the AMI from AWS Marketplace on your chosen EC2 instance (t3.medium or larger recommended).
- Ensure your security group allows inbound SSH (port 22) and any application ports your containers expose.
- Connect via SSH using your EC2 key pair (default user: ubuntu).
- Verify Docker is running: docker --version and docker ps.
- Pull and run your first container: docker run hello-world.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for the software, billed on top of standard AWS infrastructure charges. Pricing varies by the EC2 instance type you choose, so your rate scales with the compute size you run. Options range from small burstable instances like t3.nano and t2.micro to general-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage, and GPU instance families. Larger instances within each family carry higher hourly rates. You select the instance that fits your workload, and the software fee adjusts accordingly. There is no upfront commitment; you are charged only for the hours you run.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The software fee meters running hours only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. You may still pay standard AWS storage fees for the attached volumes while the instance is stopped. You are billed only for the hours the instance actually runs.
You get a security-hardened Ubuntu 24.04 LTS image preconfigured for Docker container workloads. The image is validated and updated regularly with security patches and compliance configurations aligned with common security frameworks. It is built to deploy quickly without manual hardening.
The instance type you choose drives the software rate. Larger instances within a family carry higher hourly fees. GPU families like p3 and g3 and large memory or compute instances cost more per hour than small burstable types like t3.nano. You run one instance and its matching rate applies.
