community cloud spot POD
A spot instance suddenly automatically switched to an on-demand instance. Is this normal?
Also, when downloading Docker images, it often fails or becomes slow. (The speed variance when downloading Docker images each time a pod is created is too large (depends on luck)). Is this normal? Is there a way to minimize this?
I host an average of 20 RTX 4090 instances for about 12 hours a day, automatically removing or adding pods to match demand. I'm curious about situations where Docker image downloads suddenly fail and about the behavior of spot instances

No i don't think so, spot can be terminated if its not available anymore thats what possible to be done automatically
are you using the api from runpod? maybe that can be the reason it switched ( not sure )
Suddenly fail like what?
which registry did you use for that?, maybe it can be from the pod, or from the registry
