Pipeline: Correct EC2 instances without graviton

Overview

EC2 instances without graviton processor incur cost over time, with graviton processor (arm64 - 64-bit ARM architecture), you can save money in two ways: First, your instances run more efficiently due to the Graviton architecture. Second, you pay less for the time that they run. In fact, EC2 instances powered by Graviton are designed to deliver up to 19 percent better performance at 20 percent lower cost.

This pipeline allows you to specify a collection of EC2 instances without the graviton processor and then either sends notifications or attempts to perform a predefined corrective action upon the collection.

While this pipeline can be used independently, it is typically invoked from either:

Run the pipeline

To run this pipeline from your terminal:

flowpipe pipeline run aws_thrifty.pipeline.correct_ec2_instances_without_graviton \
  --arg 'items=<list(object({
      title       = string
      instance_id = string
      region      = string
      conn        = string
    }))>'

Use this pipeline

To call this pipeline from your pipeline, use a step:

step "pipeline" "step_name" {
  pipeline = aws_thrifty.pipeline.correct_ec2_instances_without_graviton  
  args = {
    items = <list(object({
      title       = string
      instance_id = string
      region      = string
      conn        = string
    }))>
  }
}

Params

Name	Type	Required	Description	Default
items	list(object({ title = string instance_id = string region = string conn = string }))	Yes		-
notifier	notifier	Yes	The name of the notifier to use for sending notification messages.	`notifier.default`
notification_level	string `info`, `verbose`, `error`	Yes	The verbosity level of notification messages to send. Valid options are 'verbose', 'info', 'error'.	`info`
approvers	list(notifier)	Yes	List of notifiers to be used for obtaining action/approval decisions.	`notifier.default`
default_action	string `notify`, `skip`, `stop_instance`, `terminate_instance`	Yes	The default action to use for the detected item, used if no input is provided.	`notify`
enabled_actions	list(string) `skip`, `stop_instance`, `terminate_instance`	Yes	The list of enabled actions to provide to approvers for selection.	`[ "skip", "stop_instance", "terminate_instance" ]`
