Every time I'm starting a new service to run internally or reviewing something we have going, I find myself struggling to find the right instance type for the needs.
For instance, there are three families (r, x, z) that optimize RAM in various ways in various combinations and I always forget about the x and z variants.
So I put together this "cheat sheet" for us internally and thought I'd share it for anyone interested.
