Use this option to deliver persistent desktops where user data and settings are preserved. Amazon WorkSpaces Core manages the underlying infrastructure on your behalf, including Amazon Machine Image (AMI), Amazon EC2 instances, and Amazon EBS volumes. Pricing is all-inclusive and available on hourly or monthly billing terms.

Use this option if you prefer to have more visibility and control of the types of Amazon EC2 instances managed by WorkSpaces Core. You can deliver both persistent and non-persistent desktops while maintaining direct control over your Amazon EC2 instances. This option allows you to leverage Amazon EC2 pricing models, including Reserved Instances and Savings Plans, for cost optimization. You are billed for an hourly service fee in addition to charges for any AWS resources used (such as Amazon EC2 and Amazon EBS).
