Instance pricing

Amazon periodically lowers pricing. There's no API for that so when it happens we have to update the Hub by hand. If there is a pricing discrepancy, the price on Amazon's web site is what you will be billed.

Usage fees depend on whether or not you reserve an instance and may vary from region to region. The Hub displays usage fees in the server dashboard and server launch page.

  • Please refer to the EC2 instance pricing page for further details.
  • A web based costs calculator is also available.
