Scaleway Placement Groups API
Placement groups allow the user to express a preference regardingthe physical position of a group of Instances. The feature lets the userchoose to either group Instances on the same physical hardware forbest network throughput and low latency or to spread Instances acrossphysically distanced hardware to reduce the risk of physical failure.The operating mode is selected by a `policy_type`. Two policytypes are available: - `low_latency` will group Instances on the same hypervisors - `max_availability` will spread Instances across physically distanced hypervisorsThe `policy_type` is set to `max_availability` by default.For each policy types, one of the two `policy_mode` may be selected: - `optional` will start your Instances even if the constraint is not respected - `enforced` guarantees that if the Instance starts, the constraint is respectedThe `policy_mode` is set by default to `optional`.
