Episodes

This episode is a veritable masterclass on Spot, as it has been my main specialty over the last 7 years.  In less than an hour I shared most of my knowledge about Spot I learned in all these years as a user, developer and Specialist SA for Spot and Graviton. I covered the basics in detail, then discussed the various AWS native Spot integrations, as well as the main 3rd party tools in this space with their pros and cons, including my own AutoSpotting tool. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leanercloud/message

3. Reserved Instances and Savings Plans part 2

In this episode I'm talking about strategies for how to implement them in practice in your AWS account, including my recommendation on which option to choose, and in which case it makes the most sense to use 3rd party tools for automated purchase and selling of standard RIs. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leanercloud/message
