Learn how to leverage Amazon EC2 Spot Instances to create CI/CD pipelines, Jenkins build nodes, and test environments at a fraction of the cost of On-Demand Instances. We also implement mechanisms to ensure that our CI/CD pipelines remain available by decoupling the application state from our compute resources. Finally, we migrate everything to a container environment for maximum performance and cost efficiency. In addition to covering the details of Spot Instances, we share how some customers use Spot Instances to reduce the cost of their test and production solutions. Bring a laptop, and have an AWS account with IAM administrator permissions. All attendees must bring their own laptop (Windows, macOS, and Linux all supported). Tablets are not appropriate. We also recommend having the current version of Chrome or Firefox installed.
