Support AWS Placement Group Partition Number #4870
Description
/kind feature
Describe the solution you'd like
After Add support to specify PlacementGroup Name in instances, users can specify pre-created placement group name when running instances, using PlacementGroupName field.
Given that Placement Groups have different placement strategies, Partition strategy allows more precise allocation with a specified Partition Number at the instance level to achieve highest level of availability.
Following that, it is requested to have the ability to specify the PartitionNumber along with PlacementGroupName while creating instances because instances in one partition do not share the underlying hardware with groups of instances in different partitions.
Anything else you would like to add:
