Adobe is marginally increasing the prices reflecting the extra cost of doing business on Amazon Marketplace.
The customer is charged a total of Amazon EC2 price and AMS Marketplace price. AMS Marketplace price is fixed across all regions. As the Amazon EC2 prices vary across regions, the customer charges vary accordingly.
The customers can reduce their overall charges using Reserved and Spot instances. Adobe will shortly launch AMS on the current generation instances. These are more powerful and economical than the old generation instances available on Devpay.
The following is the pricing for US-E region. The prices for all the regions are available on the Marketplace product page.
