AWS Lightsail is an easy-to-use alternative to EC2 that offers all the tools you need to build websites and small scale web applications. Lightsail was introduced by Amazon to help new users get started quickly with EC2. The core selling points of Lightsail are its monthly pricing model and an easy to use interface. The pricing range from $3.5 to $160 per month. Lightsails also provides managed databases that you can attach to your instances. It is not suitable for enterprise-level workloads, but it is not recommended that you stick to the EC2 platform.
