Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling Groups (ASG) introduces a new capability for customers to strictly balance their workloads across Availability Zones, enabling greater control over provisioning and management of their EC2 instances.
Previously, customers that wanted to strictly balance an ASGs EC2 instances across availability zones had to override default behaviors of EC2 Auto Scaling and invest in custom code to modify the ASG’s existing behaviors with life cycle hooks or through maintaining multiple ASGs. With this feature, customers can now easily achieve strict availability zone balance and ensure higher levels of resiliency for their applications.
These capabilities are now available through the Command Line Interface (CLI), SDKs, or the Console in all Amazon Web Services regions, including Amazon Web Services China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet and Amazon Web Services China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD. To get started, please refer to the documentation.
