Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for flexible maintenance windows for performing maintenance for instances. Using techniques described herein, a user of a service provider network may specify configuration data that relates to maintenance events of instances. A “maintenance event” is any event that relates to deploying instances and/or at least temporarily losing use of an instance. For example, a maintenance event may cause an instance to be deployed, re-booted, re-started, or replaced. According to some configurations, customers may specify one or more maintenance event windows for when maintenance is to be performed, as well as customize notifications that are provided to the customer about scheduled maintenance events. For instance, customers may create a maintenance window that specifies to perform maintenance on Tuesdays, between 2 AM-3 AM, and that notifications are to include information specified by the customer (e.g., through one or more tags).

Abstract: Techniques for host resource group sharing in a provider network are described. A resource share is made of a host resource group made up of dedicated hosts in the provider network. The share provides access to the host resource group of a primary account with one or more other principals—e.g., user accounts, an organization, or a group of users. The other principals can launch compute instances into the host resource group, which may cause the automatic provisioning of new hosts into the host resource group, of the primary account, as needed.

Abstract: Techniques for automated defragmentation of licensed resources in a provider network are described. A defragmentation service in a provider network can detect the existence of intra-host fragmentation and/or inter-host fragmentation among host computing devices belonging to a host resource group of hosts dedicated to particular users. The defragmentation service can cause instances to be migrated to new locations within the host resource group to reduce or eliminate the fragmentation, allowing for hosts to beneficially be removed from the host resource group. The defragmentation service may determine which instances to be moved based on considerations involving software licenses associated with the host computing devices.
