    Abstract: A journal service maintains a journal that holds a number of journal entries. Access to the journal entries is controlled by providing a lead resource with access to a named role associated with the journal. A pool of alternate resources containing potential replacements for the lead resource is maintained. A succession order may be established for the pool of alternate resources, and individual resources in the pool of alternate resources may be managed based at least in part on their position within the succession order. The succession order may be established using various criteria that are indicative of a likelihood that a particular alternate resource will be available if the lead resource fails, such as the presence of shared points of failure between the current lead resource and an alternate resource. The lead resource may be replaced with an alternate resource as a result of various impeachment events.

    Abstract: Aspects of provisioning computing units based on improved failure resiliency are described. In one embodiment, an infrastructure component shared between a pair of computing units is identified. A failure rate for the infrastructure component is obtained, and a failure probability for a class of assigned computing units is computed based in part on the failure rate. A spread request related to the class of assigned computing units is also received. In response to the spread request, an altered composition of computing units is determined, and a difference between a failure probability for the altered composition of computing units and the failure probability for the class of assigned computing units is computed. In one embodiment, when a spread score improvement value associated with the difference meets a spread criteria of the spread request, the altered composition of computing units may be provisioned for use.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for portable network interfaces to manage authentication and license enforcement. A system may include a plurality of resource instances including a producer instance configured to implement a network-accessible service, and an authentication coordinator. The coordinator may assign an interface record to the service, wherein the interface record comprises an IP address and a set of security properties. The coordinator may configure the security properties to allow a client to request an attachment of the interface record to a selected resource instance, such that the selected resource instance is enabled to transmit network messages from the IP address using one or more physical network interfaces of the selected resource instance. The producer resource instance initiates authentication operations for the service, including at least one authentication operation based on the IP address of the interface record.

    Abstract: A distributed execution environment provides instances of computing resources for customer use, such as instances of data processing resources, data storage resources, database resources, and networking resources. Data is collected from systems internal to and external to the distributed execution environment. Some or all of the data is utilized to compute instance availability information for instances of computing resources provided by the distributed execution environment. The instance availability information might then be provided to customers and other users of the distributed execution environment. Various types of actions might be taken in a manual or automated way based upon the computed instance availability information.
