SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) Micro is a lightweight and secure OS platform purpose-built for containerized workloads. It is well suited for any decentralized computing environment such as edge, embedded or IoT deployment without vendor lock-in. (EMEA Orders Only)
SUSE Linux Enterprise Micro leverages the enterprise-hardened technology components of SUSE Linux Enterprise and merges that with what developers want from a modern, secure, immutable OS platform. As a result, you get an ultra-reliable infrastructure platform that is also simple to use and comes out-of-the-box with best-in-class compliance.
Highlights
Immutable OS. Immutable design ensures the OS is not altered during runtime and runs reliably every single time. Security signed and verified transactional updates are easy to rollback if things go wrong.
Perfect for Containers and Kubernetes. You can easily combine SLE Micro with the latest cloud-native technologies including Rancher, RKE, Longhorn persistent block storage, and K3S, the world's most popular Kubernetes distribution for use in low resource, distributed edge locations.
Low maintenance. SLE Micro with its small footprint and modular architecture makes it easy to customize, build images, configure, deploy, update, and automate. So, all routine maintenance functions like patches, updates, config changes are seamless.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
You pay by the hour for each running instance, with no upfront commitment. Pricing is tied to the AWS Arm64 (Graviton) EC2 instance type you choose to run SUSE Linux Enterprise Micro 5.5 on. The listing covers many instance families, including general-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, and metal (bare-metal) options. Larger instance sizes carry a higher hourly rate than smaller ones within the same family. The software charge is added to your underlying EC2 compute cost. This EMEA listing serves orders placed in that region only.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Am I charged for instances that are stopped or powered off?
The software charge meters running instance-hours only. Fully stopped or powered-off instances do not accrue the hourly software fee. You may still pay underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes while an instance is stopped. Charging resumes when you start the instance again.
What determines the hourly rate I pay for a given instance?
The rate is tied to the Arm64 (Graviton) EC2 instance type you launch. Each instance family and size has its own hourly software rate. Larger sizes within a family cost more per hour than smaller ones. This software charge is separate from and added to your EC2 compute cost.
How long does SUSE Linux Enterprise Micro 5.5 receive updates and support?
General support for SUSE Linux Micro 5.5 runs through 31 October 2027, based on its 12 October 2023 release. During this period you receive security and maintenance patches. The hourly listing itself has no commitment term; you pay only while instances run.

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.
Use the image to start an instance of your choice in Amazon EC2. Once the instance is running connect to it using a Secure Shell (SSH) client as 'ec2-user' and the configured SSH key. The instance is connected to the SUSE update infrastructure to receive updates. Use the transactional-update command to update the system or install additional packages.
AWS Support is a one-on-one, fast-response support channel that is staffed 24x7x365 with experienced and technical support engineers. The service helps customers of all sizes and technical abilities to successfully utilize the products and features provided by Amazon Web Services.
