Hello, I wonder if it's possible to use spot instances to run experiments in Azure ML as it's implemented for VM https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/virtual-machines/spot/?

Azure Machine Learning

An Azure service that is used to provision Windows and Linux virtual machines.

    Hi, thanks for reaching out. There's no way to enable a vm as spot instance when creating a compute instance in AML. The workaround would be to attach vm as compute. Please note that AML only supports virtual machines that run Ubuntu and requires the virtual machine to have a public IP address.
