type

The type of compute environment: EC2, SPOT, FARGATE, or FARGATE_SPOT. For more information, see Compute environments in the Batch User Guide.

If you choose SPOT, you must also specify an Amazon EC2 Spot Fleet role with the spotIamFleetRole parameter. For more information, see Amazon EC2 spot fleet role in the Batch User Guide.

When updating a compute environment, changing the type of a compute environment requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment. For more information, see Updating compute environments in the Batch User Guide.
