| 1 | +# Optimizing Cluster Resilience with Spot Instance Diversity Management |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +This document outlines a feature designed to enhance Kubernetes cluster resilience and efficiency when leveraging Spot instances. By intelligently distributing workloads across heterogeneous instance types, the system reduces operational risks while maintaining cost-effectiveness. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +--- |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +## Key Features |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +### Automated Instance Type Diversification |
| 10 | +Dynamically distribute workloads across multiple Spot instance types using a decentralized scheduling strategy. This reduces dependency risk by ensuring that no single instance type is overloaded. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +### Operational Risk Mitigation |
| 13 | +Reduces service disruptions caused by Spot instance interruptions. By spreading workloads across diverse instance families (e.g., `m5`, `t3`, `c5`), the cluster maintains elasticity even during sudden Spot market volatility. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +### Cost-Stability Balance |
| 16 | +Achieves an equilibrium between Spot instance cost savings and workload reliability. The scheduler adapts to real-time market conditions without requiring manual intervention. |
| 17 | + |

| 20 | +## How It Works |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +1. **Initial State Analysis** |
| 23 | + The system evaluates current cluster composition. For example: |
| 24 | + | Instance Type | Allocation | |
| 25 | + |---------------|------------| |
| 26 | + | `m5.large` | 60% | |
| 27 | + | `t3.medium` | 20% | |
| 28 | + | `c5.xlarge` | 20% | |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +2. **Gradual Redistribution** |
| 31 | + New workloads are redirected toward underrepresented instance types. Over time, the distribution evolves toward: |
| 32 | + | Instance Type | Allocation | |
| 33 | + |---------------|------------| |
| 34 | + | `m5.large` | 40% | |
| 35 | + | `t3.medium` | 30% | |
| 36 | + | `c5.xlarge` | 30% | |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +3. **Real-Time Adaptation** |
| 39 | + The scheduler continuously monitors: |
| 40 | + - Availability zone capacity |
| 41 | + - Spot price fluctuations |
| 42 | + - Instance termination rate history |
| 43 | + Adjustments occur incrementally to maintain workload stability. |
