OLA 2 - Workload, On-Demand
This design uses AWS's on-demand price plan, License Mobility through SA, and attempts to Optimize Cost and Reduce the Number of Cores where ever whereever possible.

OLA 9 - Workload, On-Demand, Graviton
This design is similar to the OLA 2 design, but adds support for AWS Graviton (ARM Processor, Linux compatible) instances.
Graviton instances utilise ARM processors and support specific Linux operating systems. More information regarding them can be found on the AWS Website.
Linux-based systems in the assessment will include Graviton instances where appropriate and available in recommendations for this design. Graviton instances can also be enabled in a custom design and will be considered in the same way, by enabling the relevant instances in the instance grid (compute tab). These instances are usually appended with the letter “g”, but check the AWS documentation for a full list.
