I am using Amazons Elastic Beanstalk to host a Tomcat server. I am using the t1.micro free tier. However, for this month, my bill is for over the free 750 hours.
As you can see, there is an additional 451 hours billed.
I have read that Amazon will bill an extra hour for restarting the server. There is no way I have restarted the server 451 times this month. I have deployed a new app probably around 10 times.
Does anyone know why Amazon are charging these 451 hours?
Thanks
UPDATE
I have two applications running:
This Billing contains All Ec2 instance. Which includes all the running ec2 instance not only ec2 instance launched using elastic beanstalk.
Can you check have you launch any other instance other than elasticbeanstalk..?
750 hours is not per instance, it is total. If you run 10 servers for 750 hours in a month, you get 9*750 hours of billed, and 1*750 paid for.

I'm being charged for "E2 Instance Core running in Seoul". The billing report says the related service is "Compute Engine", but there is no VM instance running from Compute Engine. I can't track the cause of the bill.
Not sure if it's related, but I created 4 Cloud Run services with 0 minimum instances auto-scaling settings and runs probably 0~5 mins per day. But the usage of the "E2 Instance Core running in Seoul" is 84 hours for 7 days. So I don't think that's the cause.
Why am I being charged for "E2 Instance Core running in Seoul"?
As confirmed in the comments, when using a VPC Serverless Connector, this connector is charged as e2-micro instances as stated by pricing docs.
This is the reason why you see these charges even if you're not having a VM in GCE.
Also to confirm, you can use the following tip from the docs:
You can view your Serverless VPC Access costs in the Cloud Console by filtering your billing reports by the label key serverless-vpc-access.
There are two possiblities:
Resources were created in the wrong region due to a bug - contact billing support and explain everything. If they confirm that it's a bug you can file it on IssueTracker.
Your account has been compromised - in this case I can recommend reading some documentation:
Compromised credentials
Identify and secure compromised accounts
Check the login audit log and see for any unathorised / suspicious looking logins and audit logs for entries related to the resources located in Seoul. It may be in a different project (which would support "being hacked" version).

I created a free account since more time to test aws services. Last week I started 2 ec2 instances and I created an EKS cluster. After one day I found 26€ as billing.
I removed all EC2 instances, the cluster EKS, the users that I created them, the users-group, I deleted every thing from the account. But the billing is still increasing without any running service. Now I have 40€. I created an incident to aws support but I don't now when they will answer me.
Do you have an idea please ? thanks
You can see exactly what you are being billed for by visiting the billing console. If you look at the bills page it will default to the current month.

Details: I have a web app on Elastic Beanstalk (web server) and I need several cronjobs to be executed. These cronjobs must connect to AWS RDS. For this, I created an Elastic Beanstalk Worker but I must pay for the worker instance to be available all day when cronjobs only need some minutes.
You can use AWS Lamda with scheduled events for this. To connect to RDS you need to place the Lambda function inside the VPC which RDS resides with required network accessibility.
This will work for short running jobs which does not exceed 5 minutes, which is the AWS Lambda maximum execution time limit.
For long running jobs you can start and stop a EC2 with AWS Lambda scheduled events, using AWS EC2 SDK.
Alternatively you can also use AWS batch scheduled with EC2 spot instances to lower the costs.

I'm wanting to host a simple blog on AWS via Docker containers. I've gone the route of creating an EC2 instance via this link https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/v2/home?region=us-east-1#LaunchInstanceWizard:
I created an instance of type Amazon Linux AMI and it's a t2.micro.
How do I know if this is a low-cost way to host my blog? What are the fees? How do I know that I have 1 year free trial?
The reason I ask is because I looked at this on the docker site and then when clicking the Get Started with AWS link on that page, it brought me to a page that started talking about large costs...is this for larger servers that is not related to the free 1 year EC2 instance I'm trying to run for a simple blog?
I'm just looking for a cheap AWS instance to host my blog, maybe a few dollars a month with very small amount of traffic and want to make sure I'm doing this right in terms of creating and setting up my server since I do want to use docker to deploy my blog in a container.
I suggest you go with t2.nano instance which will cost you just $5/month + nominal data xfer cost. Later if you find the instance size not sufficient, you can upgrade the instance to t2.micro to t2.small to m3.medium etc., just by clicking few buttons.
Use this calculator: SIMPLE MONTHLY CALCULATOR to find the approximate cost.

I'm hosting several websites on AWS and got the charge of On Demand Linux t2.micro Instance Hour for 690hrs. I've totally no idea about when I asked for this on demand instance. Is it like my free tier instance has used up so it automatically cost the on demand instance?
Also another question is how can I know which website/ec2 instance actually cost me the on demand instance hour. I strongly believe that none of my website has large traffic.
Complete information about your billing in details you may receive on a page https://console.aws.amazon.com/billing/home
Also, check the following - have you launched one more t2.micro instance? You have possibility to use free t2.micro instance for 750 hours per month, it means that you may have only one non-stop working instance per month.
Please, check, maybe you have set up autoscaling group that launched one more instance for you and forgot to disable it?
