Do we really need a node this large? As an example node. We should say this node isn't required, but is there as an example for how Teleport works.

I think we were basically trying to get something where it'd be good enough for pretty much anyone but the most hardcore users. m4.large is 10 cents an hour - I guess for 5 of those instances it adds up pretty quickly.
One thing I would like to do with Terraform is expose the instance types more readily as a variable which can be changed at runtime and make some recommendations for scale. It's just something that I haven't got around to testing yet.

Thanks @benarent. Incidentally this reminds me that we don't seem to have a page in the docs about how to use |

Love this, didn't realise we could do it.

^ Yeah, it' a new-ish feature... I've been a bit slow to adopt the new features after I updated the MkDocs image.

I would go ahead and merge this, I'll update a reference when I work on #3018 |
