Savings plan billing

Question

if I had c6i.4xlarge under cost saving plan for the family c6i and I upgrade it to c6i.8xlarge for 2 weeks and then downgrade it . what happens in this case to my charges? will it have doubling effect in the charges for the 2 weeks?

Answer

If you have a savings plan that covers a c6i.4xl and you upgrade to the c6i.8xl, then the savings plan will cover half the cost of the c6i.8xl and the other half will be the on-demand price. When you return the instance to c6i.4xl, the savings plan will continue to cover it. Therefore, you will have an on-demand charge for the time the instance is a c6i.8xl, but the savings plan utilization should not change.
