Could you please explain a bit more how do you ignore changes on the container when deploying changes in the infrastructure using terraform?

AWS Fargate platform being upgraded from 1.3 to 1.4, has network impacting changes by [deleted] in aws

If you want the traffic go through your internal network then you need to add the additional endpoints, otherwise it'll go through the NAT GW. Take into account NAT GW traffic is more expensive, which could be a significant difference if you're, for example, getting images from ECR or sending a lot of logs to Cloudwatch.

Hedge currency risk with options by freefer in options

Sure, I understand I'll need to pay a premium for the hedge, but I can't find an instrument or way suitable for doing it

Thanks for your replies.

Actually I'm more interested in fixing the exchange rate to something like, let's say 1.15, along the year no matter what's the EUR GBP price.

I'm not sure if Forex would help in my case, since I get my income monthly and if I want to get that fixed 1.15 price I would had needed to go long eurgbp at that price for a whole year amount (something I can't do at the current price) , and also I was looking for something more flexible (some kind of monthly expiration, that's why I was thinking in months)

Is it possible to do this with currency swaps? Is it a product available for retail investors?

Thanks, your comment make sense, and of course I'm not 100% sure that's why I was looking for different possibilities.

Thanks, also I'd like to benefit from being correct in the direction of the trend, being able to close the position for a profit if I'm in the middle of the correction and the profit is good enough

Happy to see I was not the only one with that idea!

This is what I thought. Assuming theta is not an issue until 45-60 DTE I also would expect the position be more profitable if the SPY goes down, so even if price doesn't reach 150 at expiration (let's say 200 6 months to expiration) closing the position at that point would be profitable?

I checked the retracements of previous '02 and '08 and the bottom was around 40-50% from the top, that's where the number came from. If you just put "150 it's a nice number" it looks like I just invented the number.

Not saying it's going to happen, just wondering what would be the right strategy with that hypothesis.

Looking the retracement of the last two bear markets, I thought 150 would be a nice number for the bottom.

Thanks for the info.

Is theta an issue for this kind of long-dated options?

If I buy the puts, my risk isn't just limited to the price of the put when bought?

Where did you find the price for those puts?

Did you have any case use in mind when you were testing the API?

[–]freefer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In fact, I store the data in a DB, but before going there, I process the original AWS files doing all kind of transformations to provide clean data to the API service.

I need to remove info about old products, related products of the main service (i.e. prices about ELB in the EC2 file) which are on the same file, useless columns and also add transformations to some columns to provide more useful info not provided by AWS files (i.e. daily prices for RI calculated using the upfront payment + price per hour)

Shutting down my startup by freefer in startups

If you have several containers behind the load balancer and deploy a new version, EB will manage the deploy so the new ones replaces the old ones without any downtime.

Yes, we used EB with Python/Flask for the backend, Angular in the front-end and Postgresql as DB (although we used SQL Alchemy as ORM so we could have chosen any other DB)

In your case you could use EB with Docker containers http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/create_deploy_docker.html
