What will I pay if I run multiple instances of the same android device image I subscribed on aws marktplace?

AWS Marketplace Genymotion Android device image pricing multiple instances cost

Short answer: You pay Genymotion’s per-instance hourly fee for each running instance plus the usual AWS charges for the EC2 instance, EBS storage, network, and any other AWS resources. Genymotion’s Device Image is listed at $0.50/hour per instance (Genymotion fee); AWS platform fees are billed separately by AWS.

Details:

  • Genymotion Device Image price on cloud marketplaces: $0.50 / hour per instance (this is the Genymotion charge shown on the Genymotion Device Image page).
  • Genymotion’s AWS page also describes competitive per-hour pricing (ranges shown on that page) and explicitly states “You are billed the same for using 1 Genymotion instance for 5h, or 5 instances for 1h.” — meaning charges are per instance-hour.
  • Important: the marketplace price shown is Genymotion’s software charge only (the Device Image page notes “*without Cloud platform fees.”). You will also incur AWS charges for the EC2 instance type you choose, EBS volumes, data transfer, and any other AWS-managed services you use. See the AWS Marketplace listing/EC2 pricing for exact AWS fees.

Example calculation (illustrative):

  • If Genymotion = $0.50/hour per instance and you run 10 identical instances for 2 hours:
  • Genymotion charge = 10 2 $0.50 = $10.00
  • AWS charge = sum of EC2 per-hour cost for chosen instance type 10 2, plus EBS, network, etc. (you must check AWS pricing for the chosen instance type and region)

What instance count, region and EC2 instance type do you plan to run so I can estimate total cost (Genymotion + AWS) for your scenario?
