Abstract
A technology is described for prioritizing a plurality of interruptible computing instances. An example method may include receiving a request to interrupt an executing interruptible computing instance that may be included in a group of interruptible computing instances having assigned instance priority values. The instance priority values may establish an order in which the interruptible computing instances may be interrupted. The interruptible computing instance may be identified that has a lower instance priority value as compared to other instance priority values assigned to the interruptible computing instances. The interruptible computing instance identified may then be terminated.
