Spot Ocean lets you reap the benefits of Kubernetes without worrying about infrastructure while gaining deep cluster visibility and dramatically reducing costs. The key question is how to use containers without the operational overhead of managing the underlying VMs while also take advantage of the cost benefits associated with Spot Instances and multi-cloud. Spot Ocean is built to solve this problem by managing containers in a “Serverless” environment. Ocean provides an abstraction on top of virtual machines allowing to deploy Kubernetes clusters without the need to manage the underlying VMs. Ocean takes advantage of multiple compute purchasing options like Reserved and Spot instance pricing and failover to On-Demand instances whenever necessary, providing 80% reduction in infrastructure costs. Spot Ocean is a Serverless Compute Engine that abstracts the provisioning (launching), auto-scaling, and management of worker nodes in Kubernetes clusters.

Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling helps you maintain application availability and lets you automatically add or remove EC2 instances using scaling policies that you define. Dynamic or predictive scaling policies let you add or remove EC2 instance capacity to service established or real-time demand patterns. The fleet management features of Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling help maintain the health and availability of your fleet. Automation is vital to efficient DevOps, and getting your fleets of Amazon EC2 instances to launch, provision software, and self-heal automatically is a key challenge. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling provides essential features for each of these instance lifecycle automation steps. Use machine learning to predict and schedule the right number of EC2 instances to anticipate approaching traffic changes.
