Does anyone have any experience running Galaxy using Amazon's EC2 spot
pricing? It seems like that could save a lot of money as compared to
on-demand pricing, and it appears that there are ways to mix on-demand and
spot instances within one processing cluster:
While it isn't bulletproof yet (restarting jobs that fail due to spot instance
reclaims, etc), Cloudman (usegalaxy.org/cloud) does currently have support for
running worker nodes as spot instances. When you go to add nodes, just click
Use Spot Instances, and add your spot price.
For obvious
