Red Hat Enterprise Linux will soon be available through Amazon’s ‘Elastic Computing Cloud’ (EC2) online service by the year’s end but is in private beta currently. Red Hat Enterprise Linux on Amazon EC2 will be a web-scale virtual computing environment, and will have everything needed to develop and host applications: compute capacity, bandwidth, and storage.
Pricing for the Red Hat EC2 option will cost $19 per month plus $0.21, $0.53 or $0.94 per hour, depending on computing and storage capacity, plus $0.11 per gigabyte transferred in and 19 cents per gigabyte transferred out.
Each computer being rented is actually a virtual machine, a slice of a physical server that’s running several using virtualization software. The ‘Small’ Red Hat Enterprise Linux instance gets you 1.7GB of memory, 160GB of storage, and Amazon’s virtual equivalent of one 32-bit processor core; ‘Large’ gives you 7.5GB of memory, 850GB of storage, and two 64-bit cores; ‘Extra-Large’ gives 15GB of memory, 1690GB of storage, and four 64-bit cores. Press release
