Abstract: In a network-based services platform, customer resources may be automatically associated with a resource creator. Upon receipt of a request to create a computing resource, the computing resource may be created and thereafter executed within the network-based services platform. In response to the request, an entity associated with the request may be identified. In response to the identification of the entity, the computing resource may be automatically associated with the identified entity specifying the entity as the creator of the computing resource. In some embodiments, a cost of operating the resource over a period of time may be calculated, and the cost allocated to the identified entity based at least in part on the creator-to-resource association that was automatically generated upon creation of the resource. In this manner, a usage allocation report may be provided to the customer that shows the cost associated with the entity.

Abstract: A workflow orchestration service coordinates the performance of a workflow. The workflow is accomplished by performing a task on each resource in a set of resources. In an embodiment, the resources are virtual computer system instances and the task is a set of commands to be run on each of the virtual computer system instances. As a result of a request, the workflow orchestration service initiates a task instance for each resource in the set of resources in accordance with a set of workflow parameters. In an embodiment, the workflow parameters include a parameter that limits the number of concurrent active task instances. In an embodiment, the workflow parameters identify condition that aborts the performance of the workflow. In an embodiment, upon failure of a task instance, the workflow orchestration service rolls back the state of an associated resource to a state before the task was initiated.
