Per hour on Linux/UNIX, in each type's cheapest region. Typical spot: per pricing run of the last 7 days, the cheapest zone's spot price, averaged, as the finder shows it with that region selected. On-demand: the same region's price. Per vCPU-hour: the spot price, or without spot the on-demand price, per vCPU. Every region is under Prices by region.
