There are tools that enable this (e.g. look at temporal.io).
As for external storage: yes, you do generate more metadata, but that's often a tiny fraction of the cost saved by moving to spot machines.
In general, these tools are adopted more for increasing reliability of existing systems, but I predict they would be a neat fit to run them on spot machines.
