AWS Marketplace Launches Select AMIs on Amazon Lightsail

AWS Marketplace now supports launching select Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) on Amazon Lightsail. This enables customers to deploy eligible AWS Marketplace AMIs on Amazon Lightsail with simple, predictable pricing and a streamlined instance-creation experience.

Lightsail instance bundles include compute, storage, and a generous data transfer allowance at a fixed monthly price. Lightsail also offers managed databases, containers, load balancers, and more, making it easy for customers to scale their applications as they grow.

What to do

  • Subscribe to a supported AWS Marketplace product (e.g., Microsoft Windows Server, Microsoft SQL Server Express, Ubuntu, cPanel & WHM, Plesk).
  • Select Amazon Lightsail as the deployment option.
  • Deploy the AMI on Lightsail with the selected region pre-configured.

The "Launch on Lightsail" deployment option is available for eligible products in all AWS Regions where Lightsail is available. To get started, visit AWS Marketplace and subscribe to a compatible product. For more information, visit the Amazon Lightsail product page.
