You also get the Highly Available ECS Spot architecture.
With the ECS Spot Architecture Blueprint, you'll also get 50%-90% Savings over On-Demand instance pricing. The value grows as you grow.
Say your EC2 instance bill is $20K/mo. Going spot can save you $16k/mo or $192k/year.
The entire reference architecture automatically gets built and tested on a daily basis with real resources. This ensures that blueprints and CloudFormation templates stay robust.
