AWS Pay-As-You-Go (per-second billing, 60-second minimum for Linux EC2)

Quake AI concept: Pricing

  • AWS bills EC2 Linux instances per second with a 60-second minimum. Pricing is not embedded in the Nova/flavor API; AWS instance pricing requires querying the AWS Price List API (GET /offers/v1.0/aws/AmazonEC2/current/index.json) or the Pricing Calculator.
  • AWS pricing varies by region, instance type, tenancy, and OS; there are no monthly price caps. Hetzner and some OpenStack clouds offer monthly price caps per server.
  • AWS does not include outbound data transfer in instance pricing; egress is billed separately per-GB with a small free-tier allowance. Quake AI's egress pricing is operator-defined. See the AWS pricing page for current rates.
  • AWS offers reserved instances (1-year/3-year commitments), savings plans, and spot pricing as distinct purchasing models not available in standard OpenStack deployments.
