https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-spot-instances.html Spot instances may be interrupted on 2 minutes notice.

Was about to create a new issue about this question. The question states that the application cannot be interrupted. Wouldn't it disqualifying spot instances?

The original question states It cannot be interrupted at all, hence why i think it should be on-demand instance.

Can someone please apply this change to the question set please?
