Amazon Spot Instance support for node pools
To reduce cloud infrastructure costs for non-critical and fault-tolerant workloads, you can use Amazon Spot Instances for your compute nodes in hosted clusters.
Spot Instances use spare Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) capacity at reduced prices compared to on-demand instances. When Amazon EC2 needs the capacity block, it can interrupt a Spot Instance with a 2-minute warning. You can use Spot Instances for node pools in hosted clusters on AWS. However, you cannot combine Spot Instances with Amazon EC2 Capacity Reservations.

Spot Instances are suitable for fault-tolerant, stateless, and flexible workloads. Do not use Spot Instances for workloads that cannot tolerate interruptions. Spot Instances require default tenancy. Dedicated tenancy is not supported. |
