Dedicated Instances
Show slides
Dedicated Instances are physically isolated at the host hardware level from instances that belong to other AWS accounts, even if those accounts are linked to a single payer account.
You pay:
-
Hourly fee per used region
-
Hourly fee for instance usage
| Dedicated Instances might share hardware with other instances from the same AWS account that are not Dedicated Instances. |
-
Provide no visibility or control over instance placement.
-
Do not support host affinity.
-
If you stop and start a Dedicated Instance, it might not run on the same host.
-
You cannot target a specific host on which to launch or run an instance.
-
Provide limited support for Bring Your Own License (BYOL)
There are no performance, security, or physical differences between Dedicated Instances and instances on Dedicated Hosts.
