-The game developer wants to replace their North America game servers with servers provided by Amazon GameLift FleetIQ. To start, they make minor updates to their game server to enable it for use with Amazon GameLift FleetIQ and then create an Amazon Machine Image (AMI). This image will be installed on every EC2 instance that is deployed for the game. The image contains the game server, dependencies, and anything else needed to run game sessions for players.

-With the AMI ready, the developer creates two Amazon GameLift FleetIQ game server groups, one for each AWS North America Region (`us-east-1` and `us-west-2)`. The developer passes in launch template (which provides the AMI), a list of desired instance types, and other configuration settings for the group. The list of desired instance types tells Amazon GameLift FleetIQ which types to use when checking for Spot Instances that are viable for game hosting.

-Finally, the developer integrates the AWS SDK with Amazon GameLift FleetIQ into their North American matchmaker, which calls Amazon GameLift FleetIQ when a new group of players needs server capacity for a game session. Amazon GameLift FleetIQ locates a Spot Instance with an available game server, reserves it for the players, and provides server connection information. Players connect to the server, play the game, and disconnect. To start a new game, players re-enter matchmaking, which prompts Amazon GameLift FleetIQ to find another available game server. Each new game request triggers Amazon GameLift FleetIQ to search for and select game servers with a low chance of interruptions. As a result, Amazon GameLift FleetIQ is constantly redirecting players away from game servers that are not viable for game hosting, even as Spot Instance availability fluctuates over time.
