Dimensions summary
This listing carries no software charge, so you pay only for the AWS EC2 instance you choose to run the OnSight collector. Pricing is organized by instance type, billed hourly. Each option maps to a specific AWS compute size, from small general-purpose instances up to large memory, compute, and GPU-backed instances. You select the size based on your monitoring load. A smaller instance suits getting started, while larger instances support more monitoring checks as your deployment grows. All options deliver the same collector software; they differ only in underlying compute capacity and hourly rate.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each hourly rate covers running one EC2 instance of that type as an OnSight collector. A t3.medium is enough to start. As monitoring grows, plan for about 1 core plus 1 GB RAM per 1,000 checks, then pick a size to match.
The software itself carries no charge. Billing reflects the EC2 instance hours you run. A stopped instance stops accruing compute charges, though attached AWS storage may still incur fees. Running time on the chosen instance type is what drives your bill.
Cost is driven by the number of running instances and the type you pick for each. Multiple collectors bill independently, each at its own hourly rate. A deployment spanning regions adds up each running instance separately on the same invoice.

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.
