The shortest path to Red Hat Enterprise Linux on AWS
summary
CentOS Linux 7 hits end of life on June 30, 2024, and AWS customers can do an in‑place conversion to Red Hat Enterprise Linux using Convert2RHEL and the RHEL marketplace migration offering. A demo converts a CentOS VM (a single t3.medium EC2) in about 20 minutes, keeping the same VPC and disks, avoiding duplicate infrastructure, and immediately gaining support, security certifications, live kernel patching and predictable 10‑year lifecycle management.
