Dear Amazon Web Services Customer,
We recently announced Amazon EC2’s vCPU-based On-Demand Instance limits, which simplify limits for EC2 customers. Today starts a transition period, during which you can opt in to vCPU-based limits. The transition to vCPU limits will not have an impact on any of your running instances or on your ability to launch new instances. However, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the new On-Demand Instance limits experience and opt in to vCPU limits at a time of your choosing. Note that the transition will end on October 24, 2019, at which point all EC2 accounts will switch to vCPU-based On-Demand Instance limits regardless of the account’s opt-in status or region.
You can opt-in to vCPU-based limits from the Amazon EC2 console, and you can also view your limits and usage from the Amazon EC2 console or the Service Quotas console. Additional information on vCPU-based On-Demand Instance limits can be found in the FAQs and documentation. Please contact the AWS support team on the community forums or via AWS Premium Support if you have questions. Click below to opt in to vCPU limits now.
