Hello,

If your EC2 instance limit is reached and your application stops working, here are steps you can take to analyze the situation and resolve the issue:

Confirm the Limit Reached:

Log in to your AWS Management Console and navigate to the EC2 Dashboard. Check the "Limits" section to confirm if you have reached the limit for running EC2 instances.

Identify the Cause:

Review recent changes or deployments that might have triggered the increase in EC2 instances. Check if any scaling events, such as auto-scaling policies or manual adjustments, have occurred.

Check Instance Usage:

Analyze CPU, memory, and network metrics using AWS CloudWatch. Look for any spikes in usage that might have triggered auto-scaling or manual instance launches.

Review Instance Types: Assess if you can optimize instance types to use fewer resources or consider spot instances for cost savings if applicable.

Request a Limit Increase:

Navigate to the "Service Quotas" section in the AWS Management Console. Select "EC2 Instances" and request a limit increase for the instance type you need.

Optimize Resource Usage:

Implement scaling policies to automatically adjust instance counts based on traffic patterns. Consider optimizing your application code or database queries to reduce resource consumption.
