This document discusses Amazon EC2 Spot Instance pools and how Auto Scaling groups can leverage Spot Instances. It explains that each EC2 instance family, size, availability zone, and region makes up a separate Spot pool with different prices. It describes how Auto Scaling groups can use either a capacity-optimized or lowest-price Spot allocation strategy to determine which Spot pools to use. The document also discusses how different instance types can be assigned weights to control their proportional contribution to an Auto Scaling group's total capacity.
