Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this hardened Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.9 image, billed per Amazon EC2 instance you run. Pricing is not tiered. Instead, each line is a separate EC2 instance type, grouped into families such as general-purpose (t, m), compute-optimized (c), memory-optimized (r, x, u), storage (d, i), and accelerated computing (g, p, inf, trn). Within each family, hourly rates rise as the instance size grows, from nano and micro up to metal and large multi-core options. You choose the instance type that fits your workload and pay only for runtime.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You get a hardened Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.9 image preconfigured with updates, firewalls, and network protocols. The rate covers the software license on that one EC2 instance type. You launch it with one click. AWS charges the underlying compute, storage, and network separately from this software fee.
The software fee meters running time only. A stopped or powered-off instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. You may still pay AWS for attached storage while the instance is stopped, but that is separate from this listing's software metering.
Each instance type is billed independently per hour. Moving within a family, such as from medium to xlarge, switches you to that line's rate. Larger sizes carry higher hourly rates. You pay the rate tied to the exact instance type running at any given hour.
