This product has charges associated with it for seller-performed integration of Apache Tomcat 11 with CentOS Stream 9, preparation of the Java 17+ runtime and Jakarta EE servlet container configuration, application of a verified operating-system hardening baseline, and final AMI testing on a documented EC2 baseline.
This product provides Apache Tomcat 11 integrated with CentOS Stream 9 and delivered as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) by ThinkCloud. The image includes a pre-configured, security-hardened Java servlet container with a Java 17+ runtime for immediate deployment.
Apache Tomcat 11 implements Jakarta Servlet 6.1, Jakarta Pages 3.1, and Jakarta WebSocket 2.2. Installed from the official Apache binary distribution, it supports modern Jakarta EE web applications, WAR deployment, XML configuration, SSL/TLS, virtual hosting, and request filtering.
The AMI is suitable for Java developers and operations teams deploying web applications on CentOS Stream 9.
Marketplace software charges cover seller-performed software and operating-system integration, preparation of the Java runtime and Tomcat configuration, application of the verified hardening baseline, repeatable image construction, and final AMI testing. Support and maintenance are supplementary services and are not the sole basis for the software charges.

AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month. See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour for Tomcat running on CentOS Stream 9, with vendor support from ThinkCloud. Pricing is not tiered by features. Instead, each dimension maps to a specific AWS EC2 instance type, and you pick the one that fits your workload. The hourly rate scales with the size and class of the instance you choose. Smaller instances cost less per hour; larger instances with more CPU, memory, storage, or accelerators cost more. General-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, and accelerated families are all available. You run the software only while the instance is active.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit include beyond the compute instance?
Each hourly rate covers the Tomcat software running on CentOS Stream 9 plus vendor support from ThinkCloud. The rate attaches to the EC2 instance type you select. You pay this software charge on top of the underlying AWS infrastructure cost for that instance.
Am I charged when my instance is stopped or paused?
The hourly software charge applies only while the instance runs. When you stop the instance, the software metering stops too. Note that AWS may still bill for attached storage on a stopped instance, but the ThinkCloud software charge meters running hours only.
How do I move to a larger instance if my workload grows?
You select a different dimension that maps to the instance type you need. Each instance type carries its own hourly rate that reflects its CPU, memory, storage, or accelerators. There is no upfront commitment, so you switch instance sizes as your workload changes.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Usage instructions
Connection Method
Connect via SSH as user 'ec2-user' to the running instance.
Use sudo to run commands requiring root access, or switch to root using: sudo su - root
Deploying Applications
Copy your WAR file to the webapps directory:
sudo cp myapp.war /opt/tomcat/webapps/
Tomcat will automatically deploy the application. It will be accessible at:
http://<instance-ip>:8080/myapp
To deploy as the ROOT application (accessible at /):
sudo cp myapp.war /opt/tomcat/webapps/ROOT.war
Restart the service after deploying to ROOT:
sudo systemctl restart tomcat
Network Configuration
Tomcat Ports:
Port 8080 (TCP): Default HTTP connector for web application access.
Port 8443 (TCP): Default HTTPS connector (requires SSL certificate configuration in server.xml).
Port 8005 (TCP): Shutdown port (bound to localhost only, do not expose externally).
AWS Security Group: Add inbound rule for TCP port 8080 to allow web traffic.
OS Firewall (if needed):
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=8080/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
Please allow SSH port 22 to limited IPs for access.
