Hello,
No, having a single partition in an EC2 placement group is not the same as using a cluster Partition. I believe with a single partition, your all instances would end up on the same segment without any isolation and that will not provide the full benefit of true partitioning or fault isolation.

Hello,
- Cluster groups give you low-latency communication over hardware isolation while Spread groups isolate instances at the rack level.
- Partition groups isolate instances at a more minute hardware component level like racks, switches and power. This provides a benefit of failure isolation and intra-partition communication performance.
Thanks
