Right? Thanks.
Yup the URL won't change, it'll automatically point to the new server. Once I change it to point to the new server you should see the change within a few hours but it can take up to a day. There'll be a note on the old server to indicate that you're still looking at the old server.

I remember looking at AWS a long time ago for a CP server move, and for the amount of traffic it looked pretty expensive, mind you the cost of things has come down a lot since back then (for conventional hosting too, I mean I was finding VPS hosting for less than $60 a month for 6+ vCPU and 16+GB of RAM running on SSDs).

And I never really thought about the scaling part but that's a good point. I might send you a PM to get more details on what the costs are, might be something to do in the future.
