Abstract: A cloud computing environment in which a plurality of data centers are populated through the launching of resources in a controlled manner. Parameters such as current usage, future projected usage and a future maximum capacity can be used decide in which data center to launch a resource. A data center can be chosen so as to minimize a possibility that the data center becomes constrained at a future point in time. Selection is such that an equal percentage of future capacity is maintained across data centers.

Abstract: Capability based placement can be used for placing virtual machine instances on server computers (which can be configured to support one or more virtual machine slots) that are capable of running the instances in an efficient manner. For example, capability tags can be determined from the detailed characteristics (e.g., detailed hardware, software, and/or other characteristics) of the server computer and/or slots. For example, capability tags can indicate capabilities such as disk throughput, network bandwidth, database support, encryption support, video editing support, etc. Requests to launch virtual machine instances can be received and capability tags can be determined from the requests. Servers and/or slots that match the determined capability tags can be identified and used for launching the instances.

Abstract translation: 基于能力的布局可用于将虚拟机实例放置在能够以有效方式运行实例的服务器计算机（可配置为支持一个或多个虚拟机插槽）上。 例如，可以从服务器计算机和/或时隙的详细特征（例如，详细的硬件，软件和/或其它特征）来确定能力标签。 例如，能力标签可以指示诸如磁盘吞吐量，网络带宽，数据库支持，加密支持，视频编辑支持等功能。可以接收启动虚拟机实例的请求，并且可以根据请求确定能力标签。 可以识别与确定的能力标签匹配的服务器和/或时隙，并用于启动实例。
