We can see spot price for different availability zones in a specific region in the EC2 web console. However there is only one price shown on the official web site for a specific instance type in a specific region. What is the relationship between spot price that is displayed on official site and the these shown in the web console (for different zones)?
If you are referring to this page: http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/spot-instances/
Amazon states: ‘The following table displays the Spot Price per Region and instance type (updated every 5 minutes). In addition to Linux/Unix and Windows, we also offer Spot Instances for Amazon EC2 running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Spot Instances are not currently supported in the AWS GovCloud Region.’
You can select the region using the drop down selector. The prices are updated every 5 minutes.
