    {% /dt %}

    {% dd %}
    Uses price to determine which instance types are the highest priority, launching the lowest priced instance types within an Availability Zone first. This is the default value for Auto Scaling groups that specify [InstanceRequirements](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/ec2/APIReference/API_InstanceRequirements.html).
        {% /dd %}

    {% dt %}
prioritized
    {% /dt %}

    {% dd %}
    You set the order of instance types for the launch template overrides from highest to lowest priority (from first to last in the list). Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches your highest priority instance types first. If all your On-Demand capacity cannot be fulfilled using your highest priority instance type, then Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches the remaining capacity using the second priority instance type, and so on. This is the default value for Auto Scaling groups that don't specify [InstanceRequirements](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/ec2/APIReference/API_InstanceRequirements.html) and cannot be used for groups that do.

  - `spot_allocation_strategy`**Type**: `STRING`**Provider name**: `SpotAllocationStrategy`**Description**: The allocation strategy to apply to your Spot Instances when they are launched. Possible instance types are determined by the launch template overrides that you specify. The following lists the valid values:
    {% dl %}
    
    {% dt %}
capacity-optimized
    {% /dt %}

    {% dd %}
    Requests Spot Instances using pools that are optimally chosen based on the available Spot capacity. This strategy has the lowest risk of interruption. To give certain instance types a higher chance of launching first, use `capacity-optimized-prioritized`.
        {% /dd %}

    {% dt %}
capacity-optimized-prioritized
    {% /dt %}

    {% dd %}
    You set the order of instance types for the launch template overrides from highest to lowest priority (from first to last in the list). Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling honors the instance type priorities on a best effort basis but optimizes for capacity first. Note that if the On-Demand allocation strategy is set to `prioritized`, the same priority is applied when fulfilling On-Demand capacity. This is not a valid value for Auto Scaling groups that specify [InstanceRequirements](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/ec2/APIReference/API_InstanceRequirements.html).
        {% /dd %}

    {% dt %}
lowest-price
    {% /dt %}

    {% dd %}
    Requests Spot Instances using the lowest priced pools within an Availability Zone, across the number of Spot pools that you specify for the `SpotInstancePools` property. To ensure that your desired capacity is met, you might receive Spot Instances from several pools. This is the default value, but it might lead to high interruption rates because this strategy only considers instance price and not available capacity.
        {% /dd %}

    {% dt %}
price-capacity-optimized (recommended)
    {% /dt %}

    {% dd %}
The price and capacity optimized allocation strategy looks at both price and capacity to select the Spot Instance pools that are the least likely to be interrupted and have the lowest possible price.
    {% /dd %}

        {% /dl %}
  - `spot_instance_pools`**Type**: `INT32`**Provider name**: `SpotInstancePools`**Description**: The number of Spot Instance pools across which to allocate your Spot Instances.

  - `spot_max_price`**Type**: `STRING`**Provider name**: `SpotMaxPrice`**Description**: The maximum price per unit hour that you are willing to pay for a Spot Instance. If your maximum price is lower than the Spot price for the instance types that you selected, your Spot Instances are not launched. We do not recommend specifying a maximum price because it can lead to increased interruptions. When Spot Instances launch, you pay the current Spot price. To remove a maximum price that you previously set, include the property but specify an empty string ("") for the value.If you specify a maximum price, your instances will be interrupted more frequently than if you do not specify one.Valid Range: Minimum value of 0.001

The identified On-Demand price is the price of the lowest priced current generation C, M, or R instance type with your specified attributes. If no current generation C, M, or R instance type matches your attributes, then the identified price is from either the lowest priced current generation instance types or, failing that, the lowest priced previous generation instance types that match your attributes. When Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects instance types with your attributes, we will exclude instance types whose price exceeds your specified threshold. The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling interprets as a percentage. If you set `DesiredCapacityType` to `vcpu` or `memory-mib`, the price protection threshold is based on the per-vCPU or per-memory price instead of the per instance price.Only one of `SpotMaxPricePercentageOverLowestPrice` or `MaxSpotPriceAsPercentageOfOptimalOnDemandPrice` can be specified. If you don't specify either, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling will automatically apply optimal price protection to consistently select from a wide range of instance types.

When a Spot or On-Demand Instance is launched, the capacity units count toward the desired capacity. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches instances until the desired capacity is totally fulfilled, even if this results in an overage. For example, if there are two units remaining to fulfill capacity, and Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling can only launch an instance with a `WeightedCapacity` of five units, the instance is launched, and the desired capacity is exceeded by three units. For more information, see [Configure an Auto Scaling group to use instance weights](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/ec2/userguide/ec2-auto-scaling-mixed-instances-groups-instance-weighting.html) in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide. Value must be in the range of 1–999. If you specify a value for `WeightedCapacity` for one instance type, you must specify a value for `WeightedCapacity` for all of them.Every Auto Scaling group has three size parameters (`DesiredCapacity`, `MaxSize`, and `MinSize`). Usually, you set these sizes based on a specific number of instances. However, if you configure a mixed instances policy that defines weights for the instance types, you must specify these sizes with the same units that you use for weighting instances.
