Simpler migration for Ubuntu based AMIs between EC2 regions
Ubuntu is a very picky about the kernels used in EC2, especially starting with Lucid Lynx. This makes migration between regions a bit painful as you need to know the right kernel to use (32 or 64 bit) when you migrate an AMI between different regions. In Ylastic, we have a simple gui based migration, but you had to pick a kernel in the target region for any recent ubuntu based AMI in order to launch the migration. Not any more :-) We now automatically pick a kernel that will work for your migrated AMI in the target region.
You just need to make sure you pick the right flavor of Ubuntu :-)
