Spot/On-Demand fallback documentation #212

Closed mrocklin closed 1 year ago

mrocklin commented 1 year ago

I'd like to start using the spot/on-demand fallback option but I'm not seeing it in documentation (searching for "spot"). Any recommendations?

So far just in the API docs: https://docs.coiled.io/user_guide/api.html?highlight=spot#coiled.BackendOptions

Need to add some better docs around this all. My current recommendation is

Cluster(..., backend_options={"spot":True, "spot_on_demand_fallback": True, "multizone": True})

We've added https://docs.coiled.io/user_guide/cluster_creation.html#pricing-and-availability. The updated recommendation is cluster = coiled.Cluster(use_best_zone=True, compute_purchase_option="spot_will_fallback").
