    Abstract: Information about the transmission of packets or other information can be inferred based at least in part upon the state of one or more queues used to transmit that information. In a networking example, a hook can be added to a free buffer API call from a queue of a NIC driver. When a packet is transmitted and a buffer freed, the hook can cause information for that packet to be transmitted to an appropriate location, such as a network traffic control component or control plane component, whereby that information can be compared with packet, source, and other such information to infer which packets have been transmitted, which packets are pending, and other such information. This information can be used for various purposes, such as to dynamically adjust the allocation of a resource (e.g., a NIC) to various sources based at least in part upon the monitored behavior.

    Abstract translation: 可以至少部分地基于用于发送该信息的一个或多个队列的状态来推断关于分组或其他信息的传输的信息。 在网络示例中,可以将钩子添加到来自NIC驱动程序队列的空闲缓冲区API调用。 当分组被发送并且缓冲器被释放时,钩子可以使得该分组的信息被发送到适当的位置,诸如网络流量控制组件或控制平面组件,由此该信息可以与分组,源和 其他这样的信息来推断哪些分组已被发送,哪个分组正在等待,以及其他这样的信息。 该信息可以用于各种目的,例如至少部分地基于所监视的行为来动态调整资源(例如,NIC)到各种源的分配。

    Abstract: Systems and method for the management of migrations of virtual machine instances are provided. A migration manager monitors a resource usable for migration of a virtual machine instance in order to predict availability of the migration resource. When migration of a virtual machine instance is desired, the migration manager schedules the migration to occur at a future point in time identified based on the predicted availability of the migration resource.

    Abstract: Attempts to update confirmation information or firmware for a hardware device can be monitored using a secure counter that is configured to monotonically adjust a current value of the secure counter for each update or update attempt. The value of the counter can be determined every time the validity of the firmware is confirmed, and this value can be stored to a secure location. At subsequent times, such as during a boot process, the actual value of the counter can be determined and compared with the expected value. If the values do not match, such that the firmware may be in an unexpected state, an action can be taken, such as to prevent access to, or isolate, the hardware until such time as the firmware can be validated or updated to an expected state.

    Abstract: Processes and systems are disclosed for leasing a producer virtual machine on behalf of a consumer virtual machine in an overlay network. The consumer host of the consumer virtual machine can communicate with a set of leasing agents to obtain the identity of a number of producer virtual machines capable of providing the consumer virtual machine with access to a service. When the consumer virtual machine attempts to communicate with a producer system, the consumer host can identify a producer host that hosts a target producer virtual machine and redirect a service request to the producer host.

    Abstract: Processes and systems are disclosed for selecting a producer system from a number of producer systems to lease to a consumer system. A leasing agent, in response to a request from the consumer system for access to a service at a producer system, can identify a producer system to lease to the lease requestor based, at least in part, on a selection weight associated with each producer system that the leasing agent is assigned. The selection weights can be modified based on status information associated with each of the producer systems. This status information may be obtain from the producer systems and/or from a consumer system that has previously accessed the producer system. The consumer system may provide the status information to the leasing agent as part of the consumer system's lease request.
