Add info about possibility of running Android emulators on EC2 instances #656

Closed artemnikitin closed 5 years ago

QuinnyPig commented 5 years ago

Is "running Android emulators" enough of a common use case for these instances, or is it a weird edge case?

artemnikitin commented 5 years ago

I would say that this is a weird case. But if you want to do it, then you can do it only on i3.metal. All other instance types doesn't have access to some hardware virtualization features which are needed for that.
