    Abstract: Techniques for dynamic resource movement in heterogeneous computing environments including provider substrate extensions are described. A dynamic resource movement service of a provider network monitor conditions of heterogeneous computing environments, including provider substrate extensions of the cloud provider network, to evaluate customer-provided movement policy conditions governing when to move customer application resources from these environments, where to move the resource to, and/or how to move the customer application resources. The customer-provided movement policy conditions may be based on a variety of factors, such as a latency between end-users of the customer application and the application itself.

    Abstract: Techniques for reducing latency between resources of a cloud provider network and end user devices are described. In one embodiment, a system includes a cloud provider network including a first control plane service to manage customer compute instances hosted on resources of the cloud provider network. The system further includes a first provider substrate extension of the cloud provider network connected to a first communications service provider network. The first provider substrate extension includes a first computer system having capacity for executing customer compute instances, is controlled at least in part by the first control plane service via a connection through at least a portion of the first communications service provider network, executes at least a first customer compute instance using the first computer system, wherein the first customer compute instance communicates with a first mobile computer system connected via the first communications service provider network.

    Abstract: A customer having a deployment of resources in a resource provider environment can utilize a mechanism such as an application programming interface (API) to obtain fault, risk, and/or distribution information for the deployment. A risk score can be generated, by the customer or a component of the resource provider environment, that gives the customer a measure of the risk of the current deployment, whereby the customer can request one or more changes to the customer deployment. In some embodiments the customer can provide one or more risk criteria, such as a maximum risk score or minimum fault tolerance, that the resource provider environment can attempt to satisfy over the duration of the customer deployment, automatically making adjustments to the deployment as appropriate. The risk score can include information about the customer workload as well as the physical deployment in order to provide more accurate data.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling users of a service provider network to create and configure “application profiles” that include parameters related to execution of user workloads at provider substrate extensions. Once an application profile is created, users can request the deployment of user workloads to provider substrate extensions by requesting instance launches based on a defined application profile. The service provider network can then automate the launch and placement of the user's workload at one or more provider substrate extensions using edge-optimized compute instances (e.g., compute instances tailored for execution within provider substrate extension environments). In some embodiments, once such edge-optimized instances are deployed, the service provider network can manage the auto-resizing of the instances in terms of various types of computing resources devoted to the instances, manage the lifecycle of instances to ensure maximum capacity availability at provider substrate extension locations, and perform other instance management processes.

    Abstract: Techniques for providing customer feedback related to virtual machine instance maintenance events are described herein. A customer is provided with an event message specifying a virtual machine maintenance operation and a proposed time to perform that virtual machine maintenance operation. A response that specifies the time that the customer wishes to perform the virtual machine maintenance operation is received and the virtual machine maintenance operation is scheduled based at least in part on that specified time.

    Location policies for reserved virtual machine instances

    Abstract: Apparatus and method are described that relate to reserved virtual machine instances and location policies. Customers of a provider network can reserve one or more reserved virtual machine instances in a reservation and also specify a location policy for the reservation. The location policy provides restrictions as to which hardware may or may not be used to launch the reserved instances and/or how close together the hardware should or should not be to launch the instances of the reservation. The location policies afford customers some degree of control over which hardware is used by the provider network to launch the instances. As such, customers can help control increase security and/or reduce latency of their instances, or control other aspects of their instances.
