EC2 live migrates instances too. Not sure where we are with rollout across the fleet.
The reason, from what I understand, why GCP does live migration more is because ec2 focused on live updates instead of live migration. Whereas GCP migrates instances to update servers, ec2 live updates everything down to firmware while instances are running.
Curious, what instance types are you using on EC2 that you see so much maintenance?
- outworlder 4y ago> Curious, what instance types are you using on EC2 that you see so much maintenance We use a bunch of different types. M5 and R5 (different sizes) are the most commonly used types but we use many different families. I haven't done an analysis to figure out which types are hotspots. This is across thousands of instances over many regions worldwide. The percentage is low, but that still translates to daily maintenance alerts.
