Пътуването до затваряне на акаунт в Amazon AWS®

Дори и да затворите акаунта си в Amazon AWS®: вашите запазени EC2 инстанции ще продължат да бъдат таксувани (това е хубаво!).

Въпреки това можете да се регистрирате като продавач на пазара на Amazon AWS®, за да продавате своите запазени EC2 инстанции. Има изискване за това: за въвеждане на банкова сметка в САЩ. Това може да бъде постижимо: especially if you want to sell no upfront instances, you will have no money to collect thus no money sent to that US bank account (a friend, affiliate, or gift card US bank account will do).

Then here comes other stupid rules from Amazon AWS®, get ready for it:

Only Amazon EC2 Standard Reserved Instances can be sold in the Reserved Instance Marketplace. Amazon EC2 Convertible Reserved Instances cannot be sold. Reserved Instances for other AWS services, such as Amazon RDS and Amazon ElastiCache, cannot be sold.

Sell in the Reserved Instance Marketplace – Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud

So if you have any Convertible EC2 reserved instance (non-Standard) you are stuck with them until the expiration of those instances.

Thank you Amazon AWS®!
