💼 [AutoScaling.2] Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group should cover multiple Availability Zones

• Contextual name: 💼 [AutoScaling.2] Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group should cover multiple Availability Zones

• ID: /frameworks/aws-fsbp-v1.0.0/auto-scaling/02

• Located in: 💼 Auto Scaling

Description

An Auto Scaling group that doesn't span multiple AZs can't launch instances in another AZ to compensate if the configured single AZ becomes unavailable. However, an Auto Scaling group with a single Availability Zone may be preferred in some use cases, such as batch jobs or when inter-AZ transfer costs need to be kept to a minimum. In such cases, you can disable this control or suppress its findings.
