I want to run MS SQL 2012 SE BYOL on Amazon RDS under my own MSDN license but it looks like MSDN license doesn't allow me to run MS SQL unless I host it on the dedicated hardware

Microsoft Volume Licensing Product Use Rights (July 2014) states, “You may install and use permitted copies of the software on Servers and other devices that are under the day-to-day management and control of third parties, provided all such Servers and other devices are and remain fully dedicated to your use.”

http://aws.amazon.com/windows/resources/msdn/

So I need to know what my options are. I don't want to use EC2 Dedicated option for two reasons: too expensive and I don't want to install SQL server myself.
