Spot capacity savings
Estimate net savings from spot or preemptible capacity after interruptions.
Cloud & FinOpsHow it's worked out
- Net cost = (hours + rework hours) × spot price
- Interruption rate and discount stable for the instance pool
NoteUse spot for stateless, fault-tolerant work with checkpoints; diversify instance types to cut interruptions.
