Why use Linux in AWS Marketplace?

Why use Linux in AWS Marketplace?

AWS Marketplace Linux distributions require no hardware purchases and no infrastructure to maintain. The Amazon Linux AMI specifically is provided at no additional charge to Amazon EC2 users, while various distributions offer different pricing models and capabilities.
Amazon Linux AMI comes pre-installed with AWS API tools and CloudInit, enabling easy integration with AWS services and remote configuration through EC2 user-data fields. Distributions like Red Hat and SUSE offer seamless integration with AWS features including Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS), CloudWatch, Elastic Load Balancing, and Elastic IPs.
Each distribution serves specific needs: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server offers over 6,000 certified applications from 1,500+ independent software vendors, Red Hat provides military-grade security technologies, while Ubuntu serves as a popular platform for Linux stacks.
