This image is a three-panel comic from "They Can Talk" featuring beavers. In the first panel, two beavers are shown near a body of water with trees in the background. One beaver says, "i have big plans for this domain name." In the second panel, the other beaver responds, "please, no more AWS accounts." In the third panel, there's a close-up of the first beaver's face with a somewhat mischievous expression, saying "big plans."
We have launched a new Local Zone in New York City (located in New Jersey).
Scenario 4: Savings Plans and EC2 reserved instances apply to the usage You purchase a one-year, partial upfront Compute Savings Plan with an $18.20/hour commitment. You have two EC2 Reserved Instances (RI) for r5.4xlarge Linux shared tenancy in us-east-1. First, the RI covers two of the r5.4xlarge instances. Then, the Savings Plans rate is applied to the remaining r5.4xlarge and the Fargate usage, which exhausts the hourly commitment of $18.20. The m5.24xlarge and Lambda usage On-Demand charges are $32.70.
Correct response from claude Yes, Savings Plans and Reserved Instances (RIs) can coexist in your AWS account and can be used together to maximize cost savings. Here's how they work together: 1. Resource matching priority: - AWS first applies Regional RIs to matching instances - Then applies Savings Plans to the remaining eligible usage - Any remaining usage is charged at On-Demand rates 2. Optimization strategy: - You can use RIs for predictable, steady-state workloads - Then add Savings Plans to cover varying or flexible compute usage - This combination often provides the best cost optimization The main benefit of using both is flexibility - RIs provide deeper discounts for specific instance types, while Savings Plans offer more flexibility across instance families, sizes, and even services like Lambda and Fargate. Would you like me to explain more about specific scenarios where combining both might be beneficial?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Inaccurate response from reddit Answers: Can Savings Plans be combined with Reserved Instances? No, Savings Plans have replaced Reserved Instances and offer similar savings but with more flexibility. "Savings plans are not on top of reserved instances, they replaced them."
