(In reply to Chris Cooper [:coop] pronoun: he from comment #8) > 2. Using multiple instance types helps us avoid being starved for capacity. Are we OK with occasional (how occasional TBD) outages due to this? Could you elaborate more on this issue? Why would these occasional outages happen? Are EC2 instance types of limited availability? What I mean by this: assuming AWS lends weak/medium/powerful machine specs, are there be times when there aren't *for example* any medium machines available?
