Hi Jon, Your situation is a common one for many users who are new to AWS. Let's break down your concerns and address them one by one:
- Mounting Additional Storage is possible and i would recommend you to list all block devices and their mountpoints by using
lsblk
command. 2. Migrating from AWS to Lightsail is not hard and you can launch an EC2 from AMI instance. It does offer more ways to configure your Virtual Machine but it is little more complex than Lightsail regarding management. Since you are using Plesk, it still will be done by GUI so you should not have any problems.
Please let me know if I answered your question.
You can export Lightsail snapshot to EC2, after which you can resize the EBS volume size and extend your file system.
From scalability and feature perspective, EC2 is arguably better. For example, you can change EC2 instance siz to scale up. You can also choose to launch a new Plesk Ubuntu instance from AWS Marketplace.
Hello ZJon
Yes, but now given me more questions :-). When i started the "add new storage device" i did use the command (from the tutorial) of "lsblk" . So does this mean that the total storage (across 2 disks, although i doubt they are physical disks ) will be classed as 1 amount of storage, without the need for me to move files from one (root disk) to my new disk? i.e will it become a VPS now with storage of 92gb? (allocated to all server storage needs, etc) Or i may just upgrade to a lightSail instance that has 80 to 100GB storage, although i doubt i will need the CPU or RAM that comes with this.... AWS make this so confusing...
Not really related I have been reading about EC2 migration, but WOW are the costs confusing, and the free 12 month trials seem to be very low in recourses. The main website i am running has around 10k page views a day, almost all of these rely in SQL/database. I will have to try and find out what my current Managed server is using in bandwidth i think.
Also is support worth having on AWS at $29.99 a month., i am now well over 24 hours, and have had no response from them :-( If this was a live server, i would me cancelling my services with AWS. OR IS THIS THE CATCH? The hosting is very low cost, as the support is very high cost for anything that will allow me to talk to a real person. So far your answer on this forum has far surpassed the support that i am paying for! so thank you!
Thank you again Jon
