Is there anyway to move AWS infrastructure from one region to another?

amazon-ec2, amazon-elb, amazon-web-services, aws-php-sdk, ec2-ami

Solution

You can copy AMIs to a different region. But that's pretty much it. You will have to build the whole thing from the ground-up in new region.

You can however, create a Cloud-formation template from your existing set-up, then later edit it to match the region/AZ specific values and then use this template in new region to create stack.

But yeah, again, this is not a MOVE operation as you expected. One way or other, you have to build the things in new region.

Problem

I have, - EC2 x 8 - AMIs x 2 - RDS x 1 - ELBs x 2 - SG (security Groups) x 8 - VPCs x 1 in Tokyo region. But I would like to move my entire setup to Oregon. Is there any tool I can utilise to do this? By mistake this question has "Move" in it. But I am expecting the tool to do Replication.
