Using CUE to analyze AWS instance types evolution

[roman-mazur]

While playing with getting CUE definitions for Terraform, I started committing some part of AWS metadata (like EC2 instance types) into a Git repository. It turned out to be very interesting to look at the diffs later.

@roman-mazur thanks very much for sharing (apologies, I think I'm going to end up replying to your messages out of order!). Very much agree, the kind of data analysis that becomes possible when we publish this kind of structured information is endless.

FWIW, in a very different space the UK Government did a lot of this kind via the Open Data Initiative

Now I'll look more closely at #2665 :)
