How do I change my Lightsail plan?

Last updated: 2020-12-22

Your Lightsail plan is based on the Lightsail bundle that you're using.

To upgrade your Lightsail plan to a larger instance, take a snapshot and then create a larger instance from the snapshot.

To migrate to a smaller instance size:

1. Back up any information stored on your instance to another AWS service.
2. Launch a smaller Lightsail instance.
3. Migrate the information from your old instance to your new instance.

Note: If you have a static IP address, be sure to detach it from your old instance. Then, attach it to your new instance.
