I have some instances in AWS which I need only one of them, no scaling. Of course we monitor those instances as well, but before alerting someone. I checked if there's a way in AWS to check for the instance on a regular basis and terminate and spawn by itself.
I was wondering if a cron on the box that will check for my minimal requirements to consider the box working properly, and if the check doesn't pass then push an alert in cloudwatch then take action from there.
Is this the right way to do it ? Should I put it anyway in ASG ? Not sure what is the best way to do so here, thanks for any hint.
