AWS has recently modified how it handles limits/quotes. Rather than limit on the number of EC2 instances or other direct resources, limits are now defined based on vCPU quotas.
This means that healthcheck(s) using AWS cli/APIs to determine usage vs. limits, may benefit from an update in order to use newer quota mechanisms which will be supported further into the future.
