t2.micro is very small!!!
If you are trying to run a graphical environment, I would suggest bare minimum of 2GB memory (t2.small) and more likely 4GB (t2.medium) for a smooth experience.
Additionally, you can save some cost by using t3a instances over t2. The processors are new and more performant and the cost is less.
Here are the recommended memory requirements for Fedora (you did not specify the OS).
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/f39/release-notes/welcome/Hardware_Overview/
Minimum System Configuration
The figures below are a recommended minimum for the default installation. Your requirements may differ, and most applications will benefit from more than the minimum resources.
- 2GHz dual core processor or faster
- 2GB System Memory
- 15GB unallocated drive space
Users of system equipped with the minimum memory of 2GB may want to consider Fedora Spins with less resource intense Desktop Environments
Recommended System Configuration
The figures below are recommended for the default x86_64 Workstation installation featuring the Gnome desktop . Your requirements may differ, depending on Desktop Environment and use case.
- 2GHz quad core processor
- 4GB System Memory
- 20GB unallocated drive space
Hello.
Are there any errors output to the system log, etc.?
Maybe an OOM error has occurred.
If an OOM error occurs, there is insufficient memory, so try creating a swap area or changing the instance size to a larger one.
