    <p>Given your constraints, the desired functionality is unfortunately not covered by the two dedicated automation mechanisms available as <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/products/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">AWS Products &amp; Services</a> right now:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AutoScaling/latest/DeveloperGuide/Welcome.html?r=6645" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Auto Scaling</a> - <em>is a web service designed to automatically <strong>launch or terminate</strong> Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances based on user-defined policies, schedules, and health checks.</em></li> <li><a href="http://aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">AWS CloudFormation</a> - <em>gives developers and systems administrators an easy way to <strong>create and manage</strong> a collection of related AWS resources, <strong>provisioning and updating</strong> them in an orderly and predictable fashion.</em></li> </ul> <p>While starting/stopping/rebooting an instance conceptually falls into the <em>manage</em> category of the latter, it is not available like so (which incidentally is the reason we provide a separate Task specifically for this functionality within the meanwhile deprecated <a href="https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/net.utoolity.bamboo.plugins.bamboo-aws-plugin" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Bamboo AWS Plugin</a> and its successor <a href="https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/net.utoolity.atlassian.bamboo.tasks-for-aws" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Tasks For AWS</a>).</p> <p>Consequently the approaches outlined in my answer to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/9003134/45773">How to turn on/off cloud instances during office hours</a> are still applicable, albeit with the additional constraint that you would need to find a provider hosting your script or continuous integration solution for free:</p> <ul> <li><p>Hosting scripts has e.g. been possible for quite a while already by means of those cron job providers.</p></li> <li><p>Given the current explosion in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platform_as_a_service" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Platform as a Service (PaaS)</a> solutions there are quite some providers, that will allow you to do host scripts and/or continuous integration solutions one way or another as well.</p></li> </ul> <p>Obviously you'll need to verify, whether using the free tiers available for purposes like this is acceptable according to the respective <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_use" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Terms of Use</a> of a provider in question.</p>
