Experience
- AWS EC2 Spot Instances Auto Scaling Solution
I developed a Python and Ansible-based service for autoscaling and replacement of AWS EC2 Spot instances. The key feature was the ability to scale a specific instance type from the range of allowed types in a particular availability zone according to the current state of the spot market and availability of the allowed instance types.
