One of the biggest mistakes I made is not exploring spot instances and reserved instances earlier. I cut my bill by 70-80%% after paying full price for years..

If you have an active web server or backend workers with fairly short jobs, spot instances will work for you.
- thanatos519 5y agoDoes the 'cpu credits' stuff apply to spot instances too? I have been thinking of shortening my animation render time with spot instances, but it only makes sense if I can run every core at 100% for the entire life of the instance.
- mfrye0 5y agoI believe so, if it's a T series. For 100% CPU usage, it's cheaper to just get a non T series instance like a M.
