Fees
CNF will rebill the hourly cost of the running virtual computer to your CNF project/account. Charges are only incurred while the computer is in a running state (uptime) – once shutdown, no more charges are incurred until the computer is again booted. The hourly cost itself varies depending on the specifications (number of virtual CPUs, amount of memory) of the virtual computer. You will also incur one hour of machine up time for CNF computing staff to setup the machine.
For example, if you choose a virtual machine with a $2.50 / hour charge and the machine is up and running for 2 hours, you will be charged 1 hour setup time plus the two hours the machine is running, for a total of $7.50 .
CNF will also rebill the cost of any AWS Marketplace software.
