    Another case where the content is REALLY out of date.

    Section 7, the lesson named “Spot Instances” mentions the concepts of spot block and spot fleet. Spot block was turned off in *2021*. Spot fleet has the following banner on the aws documentation page “

    <awsui-icon name=”status-warning” variant=”error”></awsui-icon>Important

    We strongly discourage using Spot Fleet because it uses a legacy API with no planned investment. If you want to manage your instance lifecycle, use EC2 Fleet instead. If you don’t want to manage your instance lifecycle, use an Auto Scaling group instead. Use Spot Fleet only if you need console support for a use case where you would use EC2 Fleet.”
