Ash Berlin-Taylor commented on AIRFLOW-2975:
--------------------------------------------
It depends on your workload - if you are mostly network bound (i.e. lots of
HTTP requests, or EMR calls etc) you could go much higher, but 1 or 2 slots per
core is a good starting point, yes.
> Add support for Amazon cloudwatch (computing power at will)

> Key: AIRFLOW-2975
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-2975
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 1.10.0
> Reporter: jack
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.10.1
>
>
> Some of have one machine that runs airfow…
> While we can scale up the executor to have many resources over different
> servers this is consider to be expensive.
> There is another solution.. using Amazon Cloudwatch:
> [https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/start-stop-lambda-cloudwatch/]
>
> This enable the user to create and close EC2 machines on specific intervals
> for specific tasks.
> Basically if I have 50 DAGS to run on 1PM-3PM and few dags to run on other
> hours there is no point in paying for 2nd server 24/7.
> This could be an enhancement to one of the executors that know to work with
> more than one server.
