    Abstract: A resource management system of a computing resource service provider supports the provisioning of multiple identical or substantially similar virtual computing resource instances using a single resource definition by creating a resource set entity to which the provisioned instances belong. The resource management system controls the provisioning based on a template containing the resource definition and designed to service a situation where the intent is to create a group of similar or closely-related resources. The group of instances (i.e., items in the resource set) can be dimensioned by specifying the size of the set, or by mapping the set to another set of keys associated with a different context. A resource set definition in the template can include a program expression that the system evaluates to produce a list of the keys, and the instances may be created based on the number of keys and their associated values.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for centralizing the management of computing resources that are provisioned across multiple service provider networks by infrastructure modeling services. A service provider network may host or provide a centralized management service that supports an open source framework that provides users, or developers, with a unified development interface to manage computing resources that are provisioned in different service provider networks. The unified development interface of the host service provider network may provide users with a meta schema or language format to create infrastructure schemas for modeling, provisioning, and operating computing resources across service provider networks that are managed by different service providers. Additionally, the host service provider network may provide an open provider registry where developers of infrastructure schemas may store and publish infrastructure schemas for the different service provider networks to share computing resource types with other developers or users of cloud-based services.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for resolving discrepancies that occur to interrelated computing resources from computing resource drift. Users may describe computing resources in an infrastructure template. However, computing resource drift occurs when “out-of-band” modifications are made to the computing resources and are not reflected in the infrastructure template. To resolve discrepancies between the infrastructure template and the out-of-band modifications to the computing resources, a notification may be output to a user account associated with the computing resources detailing the differences. An updated infrastructure template may be received that resolves the differences, such as by including configuration settings that reflect a current state of the computing resources. The computing resources may then execute a workflow using the updated template, such that the workflow is executed on all of the computing resources in a current state.
