Retirement of EC2-Classic: Steps to migrate your resources from EC2-Classic to Amazon VPC:

AWS

If you are using EC2-Classic its time to migrate EC2-Classics to VPC

EC2-Classic was a previous generation of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). AWS has announced that EC2-Classic instances will be retired on January 27, 2023, which means that any resources running on EC2-Classic will be terminated and will no longer be available.

To mitigate this risk and ensure the continuity of your resources, AWS is offering an extension for a limited time for you to migrate your resources to Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC).

To request an extension, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Go to the AWS Support Center
  2. Choose "Create case"
  3. Select "Account and billing support"
  4. Select "Account"
  5. Select Category "Extend EC2-Classic timeline"
  6. Share your extended deadline in the body.

It's important to note that you should take action as soon as possible, as the extension is only available until January 27, 2023. Migrating your resources to Amazon VPC will provide you with a more robust and secure environment, as well as access to additional features and services.

Here are the general steps to migrate your resources from EC2-Classic to Amazon VPC:

  1. Create a VPC: Go to the Amazon VPC dashboard in the AWS Management Console and create a new VPC. You can specify the IP range, subnets, and other settings for your VPC.
  2. Create a subnet: Within the VPC, create a subnet for each availability zone. This will allow you to spread your instances across multiple zones for high availability.
  3. Launch instances: Launch new instances within the VPC and subnet(s) that you created.
  4. Configure security groups: Create new security groups for your instances in the VPC and configure the appropriate inbound and outbound rules.
  5. Configure routing: Configure routing between the VPC and your on-premises network, or to other VPCs, if needed.
  6. Update your applications: Update your applications to use the new instances and security groups in the VPC.
  7. Test and validate: Test and validate your applications to ensure that they are working correctly in the VPC.
  8. Migrate data: Migrate data from your EC2-Classic instances to your new instances in the VPC.
  9. Clean up: Once the migration is complete, you can terminate your EC2-Classic instances and remove any unused resources.
