Rejsen til at lukke en Amazon AWS®-konto

Også selvom du lukker din Amazon AWS®-konto: dine EC2 reserverede forekomster vil fortsat blive faktureret (det er rart!).

Du kan dog registrere dig som sælger på Amazon AWS® markedsplads for at sælge dine EC2 reserverede forekomster. Det er der et krav om: for at indtaste en amerikansk bankkonto. Dette kan være opnåeligt: 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®!
