According to Red Hat, using the AWS management console, EC2 users can quickly procure and provision EC2 instances preconfigured with supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 and only pay for the hours that they consume.
"Giving developers broad access to Red Hat Enterprise Linux using Amazon EC2 is an important step in our evolution in the cloud," said Scott Crenshaw, vice president and general manager, Cloud Business at Red Hat. "This is about giving customers and developers choice on how they deploy Red Hat Enterprise Linux and work to build the industry's next-generation applications."
