An individual developer is utilizing the AWS Free Tier (12-Month Free) to host small applications. During a 30-day month, the developer runs two t2.micro Amazon EC2 Linux instances continuously at the same time. How will the developer be billed for this EC2 usage?
- The developer is billed at standard On-Demand rates for the EC2 hours that exceed the combined 750-hour monthly Free Tier limit.Cevap
- BBoth instances run completely free of charge because the 750-hour monthly limit applies to each EC2 instance individually.
- CThe developer is billed for all hours of the second instance because the Free Tier only allows one active EC2 instance at a time.
- DThe developer must pay an upfront capital expense (CapEx) to secure the Free Tier pricing model before launching the second instance.
Cevap
The developer is billed at standard On-Demand rates for the EC2 hours that exceed the combined 750-hour monthly Free Tier limit.
The correct answer is correct because the AWS Free Tier provides 750 hours of combined monthly usage for t2.micro or t3.micro instances. When running multiple instances concurrently, their run hours are added together. In a 30-day month, two instances run for a total of 1,440 hours, meaning the developer is billed for the 690 hours that exceed the 750-hour limit.
