Let me know what you think! I'd like to make this happen!

hey @julienduchesne I think this is definitely the right approach. This will be the first proposal we accept so please bear with us as we work through the process. As part of this proposal I want to consider both database design and how we can surface this data in the user interface. For user interface we will engage our design team.

I also think we probably want some purge routine to periodically remove instances where no ping has been received in the past N hours. This will be important for teams using the autoscaler that may not want a large buildup of instance history in the database. Also, longer term, we may want to consider using this feature as a replacement for the autoscaler backend since the data will largely be the same; so this is something I will be thinking about from a more long term perspective.
