"EjectorSeat" - EjectorSeat is the hip cool way to create a current, usable, set of scripts which can move any AWS/EC2/Linode/Heroku/... (start with AWS/EC2) instance from where it is, to somewhere else. By using EjectorSeat all of the changes and specs you have on your install are automatically documented into its configuration and data location databases so that when the time comes to pull the yellow and black handles, you will know that your install is being migrated, and better yet, when its done migrating one push of a button and blam! its up and running.

It seems like this should be possible to package up (it will take a bit of work of course) but its the 'copper' option (of the silver/bronze/gold nomenclature) for disaster preparedness. Basically you don't have the funds to maintain two instances all the time, this lets you move the one you have when you need to.
Of course like real ejector seats it will have failure conditions (like flying inverted at 50', bad time to eject) but it could provide an ops guy with a bit of piece of mind.
