Talking to one of my friends in devOps space, I came to know about the noisy neighbour problem.
Amazon does not expose their instance count per physical node, nor do they provide customers with guidance on at which points in the product portfolio they can acquire single tenant (dedicated) instances that avoid the noisy neighbor problem entirely. This is an area in which small organizations can gain significant advantages by utilizing other cloud hosting providers, many of which do offer single tenant cloud servers, or are at the least transparent about the contention ratios customers can expect when hosting on their infrastructure.
Turns out AWS doesn't do a good job in supporting its customers on this.
