Now if we could just use cfn-signal (or something like it) when setting up an EC2 auto-scaling group without having to create a Cloudformation stack behind the scenes as the Pulumi awsx package does.
Pardon my density, but isn't that the function of the health checks built into the ASG, which offers both EC2 and ELB health checking to take a bogus instance out of service?
Or do you mean "operation A --> ASG --> (wait $foo time for 'healthy') --> operation B" type thing?
