So there is no possibility to find an AMI with a Standard edition of 2019?

Is the price (standard vs datacenter) the same for the AWS customers?

Hello Experts,
I am trying to create  a Windows 2019 standard edition instance on AWS, unfortunately the AMI that Amazon provide (see image below)has only the DATACENTER Edition . 
Is there any workaround ?
is there a big difference of price between the standard and datacenter edition?
