Automatically replace AWS EC2 instances in AutoScaling groups with cheapest compatible spot instances https://autospotting.org
I think the original tag was
spot-enabled, I just changed it to spot_enabled (again which has worked for me <= 0.1.2)
The only difference in the lambda env variables is that with
0.1.4 I have another variables called LICENSE whose value is evaluation
will do some more testing later tonight
Not sure if it works with underscore and where that's coming from
There's also a debug variable that will show more logs
The Lambda payload is just a static Linux binary that you can run anywhere, it just needs the usual AWS access key and secret variables and whatever other environment variables you want to reproduce your configuration
I might sound like an idiot… but this is exactly what has happened :)
@salvianreynaldi regarding #428, I'd love to see a patch making the attach/detach logic more intuitive
@salvianreynaldi BTW, I just discovered your ASG Terraform module, it's pretty cool and I'm in the process of adopting it for some stuff I'm working on
(the world is so small)
do you have an example of scaling policies for it?
However, I don't currently have scaling policies example,
I'll try to add one this week

@/all I decided to stop actively working on AutoSpotting going forward. I don't have the time to work on it and all my attempts to ramp up the income I get from it to eventually replace my full time job failed. Please consider migrating to some of the AWS native offerings or the proprietary tools in this space. If anyone is interested in taking over the development/maintenance work feel free to reach out to me. Huge thanks to everyone who supported me on Patreon and to all the open source contributors who helped over these years.
@mello7tre agreed, I've spent a lot of time and effort on this project over the last 5 years or so, but the reality is that I can't do it anymore and it's better to make it clear so that perhaps someone else takes over instead of leaving it in this sort of limbo state
unfortunately i do not have too much time to invest in this project too.
Or better i do not have so much time to taking it over.
I use AutoSpotting in the aws infra that i developed where i work, and the dev one i am currently using the event-based branch too without any problems (i am thinking to extend it to production).
I will be happy to continue contributing to it (if someone else take it), but i think i will not be a good maintainer (too few time).

Hi @cristim I'm sorry to hear to.
I know I don't have the time to invest as much on the project as I did before, but I was still happy to check the progress and hope it keeps on going.
Perhaps opening an issue to allow people to raise their hand :wave: if they wanted to take over could be nice?
Wish you the best

@/all I have an an update regarding my current situation including open source work for AutoSpotting as part of my current job at AWS: over the last weeks I was a lot in contact with people from the Spot team about a possible internal transfer to a position in their team that would allow me to work on Autospotting open source development about half of my time, and the rest as a Solution Architect for Spot and Autoscaling including supporting key AutoSpotting users. I would really like to get your help by supporting this initiative through your TAM contacts.
@/all I'm happy to announce an updated version of the AutoSpotting Terraform module that closes some of the feature gap with the CloudFormation template, in particular handling of termination events. You can get it from here https://registry.terraform.io/modules/AutoSpotting/autospotting/aws/0.1.5
please let me know if you notice any issues with it
the code changes can be seen here https://github.com/AutoSpotting/terraform-aws-autospotting/pull/22/files
I also recently enabled Github Sponsors, so if AutoSpotting is saving you any meaningful amount of money and you can afford a small fraction to support development, please support me on https://github.com/sponsors/cristim, thank you in advance!
