    Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling users of a cloud provider network to define and use custom “virtual regions” comprised of selected sets of cloud provider network infrastructure locations. A cloud provider network enables users to obtain information about available infrastructure locations and to identify locations that satisfy a set of performance characteristics and other parameters. Once a set of desirable infrastructure locations have been identified, users can request the creation of a virtual region to be associated with their user account, where the request specifies a set of infrastructure locations to comprise the virtual region. Once a virtual region is created, users can cause computing resources to be launched into or otherwise associated with the virtual region in a manner similar to the use of existing regions and availability zones.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for scheduling use of heterogeneous frequency schemes for radio-based networks. In one embodiment, a plurality of frequency schemes that are available to be used in a geographic area by a radio-based network are determined. It is determined whether respective quality-of-service requirements associated with a plurality of wireless devices used in the geographic area, or applications executed in those devices, are capable of being met by individual ones of the plurality of frequency schemes. A schedule is generated for use of one or more of the plurality of frequency schemes in the geographic area by the radio-based network based at least in part on whether the respective quality-of-service requirements are capable of being met by the individual ones of the plurality of frequency schemes.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for a system that hardware locks a virtual machine to a host machine. The host machine can include a processor and a memory. A hypervisor can be stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, causes the computing device to host one or more virtual machines. In addition, machine readable instructions stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, cause the computing device to at least: receive a request to perform an operation on a virtual machine hosted by the hypervisor; evaluate the request to determine that the request complies with a policy; and in response to a determination that the request complies with the policy, cause the hypervisor to initiate the operation.

    Abstract: Techniques for automated failover of remote control planes are described. A method of automated failover of remote control planes include determining failover event associated with a first control plane has occurred, the first control plane associated with a first area of a provider network, identifying a second control plane associated with a second area of the provider network, and failing over the first area of the provider network from the first control plane to the second control plane, wherein the child area updates one or more references to endpoints of the first control plane to be references to endpoints of the second control plane.

    Abstract: Techniques for managing resource utilization across heterogeneous physical hosts are described. Resource utilization of a first plurality of physical hosts in a provider network may be monitored, each physical host comprising a plurality of resources. A future resource utilization can be determined, the future resource utilization including quantities of a plurality of resource types. The future resource utilization can be matched to a plurality of physical host types, each physical host type associated with a different plurality of resources. A second plurality of physical hosts corresponding to the plurality of physical host types can be deployed to the provider network.
