As many of you have heard, Amazon announced pricing changes this morning. Customers have been asking if Engine Yard pricing will be adjusted accordingly, so before you call your rep, here’s your answer!
Effective November 1st, we will be reducing the prices that we charge for instance hours in Engine Yard Cloud, passing through the announced price reduction in Amazon EC2 pricing. These prices will be in effect automatically for the November billing cycle. New and existing customers will not have to do anything to activate the new pricing, you will get the price reduction automatically starting with your November usage.
This table displays the current and new pricing for Engine Yard Cloud instance hours:
| Current | Nov 1st |
|
| Small | $0.160 | 0.145 |
| Large | 0.480 | 0.420 |
| XL | 0.900 | 0.780 |
| High CPU Med | 0.270 | 0.240 |
| High CPU XL | 0.900 | 0.780 |
Our main web-site and pricing pages will be updated on November 1st to reflect these new prices. As always, we’re here to address any questions or comments, and look forward to hearing from you!

Any word on when we'll be able to take advantage of reserved instance pricing for EY cloud?
Joe, it's definitely something that makes a LOT of sense to implement — however we don't have a delivery date for it yet.
I'd love to see pricing based on reserved instances as well. We have hosting money we have to spend before the end of the year (taxes) and I'd love to sink it into reserved instances.
