How many is a shitload of instances? Are we talking tens, hundreds, thousands?
In my experience AWS had very stringent limits on the amount of active instances of each type (starts around 10 for new accounts, 2 for the more expensive instances). It takes tickets to support then days of waiting to raise these limits.
That should have prevented your company from creating tens of instances, let alone hundreds, unless that's already your typical daily usage.
