instanceFamily

The instance family to use as a baseline reference. Ensure that you specify the correct value for the instance family. The instance family is everything before the period (`.`) in the instance type name. For example, in the instance type `c6i.large`, the instance family is `c6i`, not `c6`. For more information, see Amazon EC2 instance type naming conventions in Amazon EC2 Instance Types. The following instance families are not supported for performance protection:

• `c1`

• `g3` | `g3s`

• `hpc7g`

• `m1` | `m2`

• `mac1` | `mac2` | `mac2-m1ultra` | `mac2-m2` | `mac2-m2pro`

• `p3dn` | `p4d` | `p5`

• `t1`

• `u-12tb1` | `u-18tb1` | `u-24tb1` | `u-3tb1` | `u-6tb1` | `u-9tb1` | `u7i-12tb` | `u7in-16tb` | `u7in-24tb` | `u7in-32tb` If you enable performance protection by specifying a supported instance family, the returned instance types will exclude the above unsupported instance families.
