# Spot Instance Manager (Auto-Rebid)

## What We're Building

An intelligent spot instance manager that automatically handles spot preemptions, rebids at optimal prices, and ensures continuous GPU availability for your workloads. Never lose work due to spot interruptions again.

**Key Features:**

* Automatic spot price monitoring
* Smart rebidding when outbid
* Workload checkpoint and restore
* Multi-server failover
* Price-based auto-scaling
* Notification on preemptions
* Cost tracking and optimization

## Prerequisites

* Clore.ai account with API key ([get one here](https://clore.ai))
* Python 3.10+

```bash
pip install requests schedule
```

## Usage Examples

```bash
# Add a workload
python spot_manager.py --api-key YOUR_KEY add-workload \
    --name "ML Training" \
    --gpu "RTX 4090" \
    --max-price 0.50 \
    --image pytorch/pytorch:2.7.1-cuda12.8-cudnn9-runtime \
    --command "python train.py"

# Start the manager
python spot_manager.py --api-key YOUR_KEY start --interval 60

# Check status
python spot_manager.py --api-key YOUR_KEY status

# Cancel a workload
python spot_manager.py --api-key YOUR_KEY cancel --workload-id w_abc123
```

## How Rebidding Works

1. **Monitor** - Check order status every 60 seconds
2. **Detect** - If order is paused (outbid), trigger rebid
3. **Rebid** - Increase bid by 5% up to max\_price
4. **Failover** - If rebid fails, find new server
5. **Restore** - Resume workload from checkpoint

## Cost Savings

| Strategy            | Without Manager | With Manager | Savings |
| ------------------- | --------------- | ------------ | ------- |
| Manual rebid        | $50 wasted      | $0           | 100%    |
| Preemption handling | 2-4h downtime   | <5 min       | 95%+    |
| Price optimization  | Pay peak        | Pay off-peak | 20-40%  |
