Not sure why you’re being downvoted. Point 2 is very relevant. Scaling instances due to sudden peaks should be totally safe. Even when automated. Guess AWS is still lonely at the top.

AWS has default instance limits too, though, which you need to open ticket to increase.
Which is a much better policy than suspending the account.. 10 instances is nothing!

It really is a trivial amount of resources to have it triggering such a reaction. It's almost like DigitalOcean doesn't like being in the cloud hosting business. One of the fundamental, desirable points to the shift to such cloud hosting services is that you can quickly spin up a bunch of resources when needed and then dump it.
