This section provides detailed migration guides for upgrading between major versions of NTC modules. Each guide includes step-by-step instructions, breaking changes, and best practices to ensure a smooth transition.

Available Migration Guides​

v1.x → v2.x Migration​

Target Release: NTC Modules v2.0.0 (Gradual rollout starting Q4 2025)

Major changes in v2:

  • ✅ AWS Provider v6 Support - New region attribute architecture (1 provider, N regions)
  • ✅ AWS European Sovereign Cloud (ESC) Compatibility - Full support for sovereign cloud environments
  • ✅ Simplified Module Architecture - Consolidated module calls (e.g. 1 module call instead of 3)
  • ✅ Breaking Changes - Provider upgrades and module refactoring
When to Migrate

You must migrate to v2.x if you:

  • Want to use AWS Terraform Provider v6.x
  • Need to deploy to AWS European Sovereign Cloud (ESC)
  • Want simplified module configurations

You can continue using v1.x if:

  • You're satisfied with AWS Terraform Provider v5.x
  • You only use AWS Commercial or GovCloud partitions
  • You prefer to migrate at your own pace
Migration Timeline

NTC modules v2 are being released gradually over the coming weeks. Each module can be upgraded independently, allowing you to plan your migration strategy based on your organization's needs.

Best Practices​

  1. Test First: Always test the migration in a non-production environment
  2. Gradual Rollout: Migrate one module/project at a time
  3. State Backups: Create Terraform state backups before migrating
  4. Review Breaking Changes: Read the module-specific migration guides thoroughly
  5. Plan Downtime: Some migrations may require brief service interruptions
