As a part of that process, we also realized that there were a number of latency sensitive or location specific use cases like Hadoop, HPC, and testing that would be ideal for Spot. To get started using Spot or for more details visit the Amazon EC2 Spot Instance web page, the AWS developer blog , and the EC2 Release Notes. Contact Info.
