  * AWS Free Tier includes 750 hours of Linux and Windows t2.micro instances each month for one year. To stay within the Free Tier, use only EC2 Micro instances.
  * Requires storage: When you launch your Amazon EC2 instances you have the ability to store your root device data on Amazon EBS or the local instance store. By using Amazon EBS, data on the root device will persist independently from the lifetime of the instance. This enables you to stop and restart the instance at a subsequent time, which is similar to shutting down your laptop and restarting it when you need it again.
    * Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
      * An Amazon Machine Image (AMI) is simply a packaged-up environment that includes all the necessary bits to set up and boot your instance. Your AMIs are your unit of deployment. You might have just one AMI or you might compose your system out of several building block AMIs (e.g., webservers, appservers, and databases). Amazon EC2 provides a number of tools to make creating an AMI easy. Once you create a custom AMI, you will need to bundle it. If you are bundling an image with a root device backed by Amazon EBS, you can simply use the bundle command in the AWS Management Console. If you are bundling an image with a boot partition on the instance store, then you will need to use the AMI Tools to upload it to Amazon S3. Amazon EC2 uses Amazon EBS and Amazon S3 to provide reliable, scalable storage of your AMIs so that we can boot them when you ask us to do so.
      * Or, if you want, you don’t have to set up your own AMI from scratch. You can choose from a number of globally available AMIs that provide useful instances. For example, if you just want a simple Linux server, you can choose one of the standard Linux distribution AMIs.

    * t2.micro -  vCPUs:1  GPUs:N/A.   1 year reservation: 0.0162 hourly cost. Memory (GiB): 1 GiB. Network performance: Low to Moderate.   2020/04/04
      * EC2 Instance Savings Plans rate for t2.micro in the US East (Ohio) for 1 Year term and No Upfront is 0.0118 USD
      * Hours in the commitment: 365 days * 24 hours * 1 year = 8760.0000 hours
      * Total Commitment: 0.0118 USD * 8760 hours = 103.3680 USD
      * Upfront: No Upfront (0% of 103.368) = 0.0000 USD
      * Hourly cost for EC2 Instance Savings Plans = (Total Commitment - Upfront cost)/Hours in the term: (103.368 - 0.0000)/8760 = 0.0118 USD
      * Please note that you will pay an hourly commitment for Savings Plans and your EC2 usage will be accrued at a discounted rate against this commitment.
