We've done this several times with clients - Ben's response will work and
is pretty close to the approaches we took:
Use the gossiping property file snitch in the VPC data centre.
Agree. I don't think you could even do this effectively with the EC2Snitch.
Use a public elastic ip for each
Alain Rodriguez outlined this procedure that he was going to try, but failed to
mention whether this actually worked :-)

Dear Colleagues:
I need to move Cassandra from EC2 classic into VPC.
What I was thinking is that I can create a new data center within VPC
and rebuild it from my existing one (switching to vnodes while I am at
it). However, I don't understand how the ec2-snitch will deal with this.

I have setup Cassandra into VPC with the EC2Snitch and it works without
issues. I didn't need to do anything special to the configuration. I have
created instances in 2 availability zones, and it automatically
picks it up as 2 different data racks. Just make sure your nodes can see
each other in
I get that, but if you read my opening post, I have an existing cluster
in EC2 classic that I have no idea how to move to VPC cleanly.

Another idea I had was taking the ec2-snitch configuration and converting it
into a Property file snitch. But I still don't understand how to perform this
move since I need my newly created VPC instances to have public IPs --
