If you have an existing EC2 instance with EBS storage and want to convert it to the new Nitro SSD, what will be the process for migration? E.g. a live swapping of attached storage devices, a quick reboot, or spinning up a new instance?
- jeffbarr 5y agoThe Nitro SSDs are currently used as instance storage, directly attached to particular EC2 instances.
- lend000 5y agoThanks for the response. To clarify, does this mean that only some EC2 instances will be eligible (i.e. if I have an older EC2 instance I will have to re-create it)?
- Androider 5y agoNitro SSDs appear to only be available on specific new instances types, like the just announced Im4gn and Is4gen.
