title: What is the latency from hibernated state to a request can be accepted on AWS?
body: <p>AWS supports <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/Hibernate.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">hibernation of instances</a> to EBS storage.  From the hibernated state, they can be resumed and continue execution.</p>
  
  <p>How useful hibernation is compared to starting a new instance is crucially linked to startup time of a fresh instance vs how long it takes for a hibernated instance to continue running, specifically how long it takes to be able to accept and process network requests.</p>
  
  <p>How long does this take?</p>
