Sophos UTM on AWS
You can purchase Sophos UTM as a pre-configured Amazon Machine image (AMI). AMIs are available from the AWS Marketplace, where you can search for and purchase UTM in either stand-alone or auto-scaling. The AMIs are launched on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances or virtual machines. EC2 instances come in a variety of types and sizes, similar to selecting different option sizes for hardware appliances in the on-premises world.
PAYG
Pay-As-You-Go
You will incur a charge for:
- time you spend running UTM on AWS
- hourly pricing of the EC2 instance you selected to power the Sophos UTM on AWS software
Launch Sophos UTM on AWS and pay only for what you use, when you use it. No upfront commitment. No minimum fee. And you can delete your UTM on AWS at any time.
Seasonal compute workloads that often experience high utilization during peak times of the year, but low utilization during off-peak times (such as tax or retail websites) may find PAYG advantageous. You can scale the capacity of your UTM up or down as needed, while paying only for what you use.
