EKS

Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)

For better use of the Amazon EKS with Spot instances, some precautions are necessary to avoid downtime for applications running on the cluster.

To define which instance types and families to use, It is necessary to determine groups with the lowest chance of interruption. Will be necessary to weigh up the tolerance, application interruptions, and cost reduction goals when selecting a Spot instance. The lower the interruption rate, the longer the Spot instances will run. The Balanced strategy can be used.
