- benologist 15y agoDuring times when there's competition for spot instances that's going to be more money for less ram, less cpu, shitty disk IO (esp vs. our blazing raid10), and no included bandwidth. And at any time we might not be bidding enough to actually keep them...
- ericd 15y agoI'm not seeing this? The only thing with 17 gigs that I see is the High Mem xtra large, and that's 0.50/hour. The xeons he's talking about are quad core, each, for a total of 8, vs. 2 cores of 3.25 ECU each for the high mem xtras.
- vetman35 15y ago"SPOT INSTANCE" is $0.2460 per hour right now. "ON DEMAND" is $0.50 per hour. Login to your AWS Management Console to see the current SPOT INSTANCE price.
- ericd 15y agoAh gotcha, thanks - assumed he meant that the price was listed on the page. The points about 8 vs. 2 cores still stands, though? Add to that that spot pricing isn't really comparable to guaranteed pricing (on demand is more comparable since dedicated servers are on-demand, you can cancel and get your month prorated).
