The migration path would be documenting the change as part of the release notes to simply switch from using the consumer URL server_ip:7080/awsapi to setting up ec2stack and consuming from URL server_ip:5000 (or any other configured port). Normally service offerings are rather limited compared to other resources, when setting up ec2stack users can provide the mapping to it or migrate it to ec2stack using something custom like cloudmonkey+bash. The important issue to note here is that a lot of real-world awsapi integration with a user's own subsystems may not follow any convention or be rather customised other than consumption of service URL and associated apikey/secretkey, so migration path from our end would mostly consist of documenting the changes. This upgrade path may also be implemented as a script or a ec2stack tool that can read cloudbridge database to get useful configs and service offering mappings. And, there may be some changes that may not be migrated or supported due to the different AWS API versions both the services support and one’s own custom usage/implementation.
