Hello lijiann,
Thank you for the feedback.
The scenario describes a system with predictable periods of high usage, particularly during sales events and holiday seasons. In such cases, Spot Instances are a suitable solution for handling temporary and high-capacity compute demands in a cost-effective manner. They are ideal when the extra capacity required is not constant but occurs in scheduled bursts, allowing the company to take advantage of lower-cost, short-term compute resources. This is especially effective when the base workload is already handled by a more stable and committed pricing option, such as Compute Savings Plans or Reserved Instances.
