    Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling users of a service provider network to create and configure “application profiles” that include parameters related to execution of user workloads at provider substrate extensions. Once an application profile is created, users can request the deployment of user workloads to provider substrate extensions by requesting instance launches based on a defined application profile. The service provider network can then automate the launch and placement of the user's workload at one or more provider substrate extensions using edge-optimized compute instances (e.g., compute instances tailored for execution within provider substrate extension environments). In some embodiments, once such edge-optimized instances are deployed, the service provider network can manage the auto-resizing of the instances in terms of various types of computing resources devoted to the instances, manage the lifecycle of instances to ensure maximum capacity availability at provider substrate extension locations, and perform other instance management processes.

    Abstract: Technology is described for communicating messages between edge devices. A process may be executed at a first edge device for use by a mobile device that is connected to the first edge device. A connection may be established between the first edge device and a second edge device. The first edge device may determine that the mobile device has been handed over from the first edge device to the second edge device. Messages may be communicated between the process executing on the first edge device and the mobile device via the connection with the second edge device when the mobile device has been handed over from the first edge device to the second edge device.
