Abstract: Techniques are described for managing distributed execution of programs. In some situations, the techniques include determining configuration information to be used for executing a particular program in a distributed manner on multiple computing nodes and/or include providing information and associated controls to a user regarding ongoing distributed execution of one or more programs to enable the user to modify the ongoing distributed execution in various manners. Determined configuration information may include, for example, configuration parameters such as a quantity of computing nodes and/or other measures of computing resources to be used for the executing, and may be determined in various manners, including by interactively gathering values for at least some types of configuration information from an associated user (e.g., via a GUI that is displayed to the user) and/or by automatically determining values for at least some types of configuration information (e.g., for use as recommendations to a user).

Abstract: Techniques are described for facilitating a client's control over use of computing-related resources on the client's behalf. In some situations, a client's control is based on specifying a group of one or more resource usage constraints with a client resource constraint manager service, which provides information about the client-specified constraints to one or more other remote network services with which the client interacts. Those remote services then use that constraint information to determine whether and how to use computing-related resources on the client's behalf. For example, the resource usage constraints specified by a client may relate to one or more particular geographical areas and/or to one or more measures of relative proximity between computing-related resources (e.g., between multiple instances of a single type of computing-related resource provided by a single service, or between multiple distinct types of computing-related resources provided by multiple unaffiliated services).

Abstract: Techniques are described for managing distributed execution of programs. In at least some situations, the techniques include decomposing or otherwise separating the execution of a program into multiple distinct execution jobs that may each be executed on a distinct computing node, such as in a parallel manner with each execution job using a distinct subset of input data for the program. In addition, the techniques may include temporarily terminating and later resuming execution of at least some execution jobs, such as by persistently storing an intermediate state of the partial execution of an execution job, and later retrieving and using the stored intermediate state to resume execution of the execution job from the intermediate state. Furthermore, the techniques may be used in conjunction with a distributed program execution service that executes multiple programs on behalf of multiple customers or other users of the service.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide logic that validates a code generated by a user, and that executes a function of a programmatic interface after the user code is validated. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method performs a multifactor authentication of a user prior to executing a function of a programmatic interface. The method includes receiving, at a server, a user code through a programmatic interface. The server computes a server code in response to the user code, and compares the user code to the server code to determine that the user code corresponds to the server code. The server validates the user code and executes a function of the programmatic interface, after the user code is validated.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for configuring and monitoring computing resources of an entity for compliance with one or more standards. In one implementation, a server receives one or more identifiers of one or more standards and determines a plurality of configuration settings for the computing resources of the entity, based on the received one or more identifiers. The plurality of configuration settings comply with the one or more standards. The computing resources of the entity are configured according to the plurality of configuration settings. The server detects an event related to the computing resources. The detected event and the plurality of configuration settings are evaluated for compliance with the one or more standards. A determination is made whether the entity is compliant with the one or more standards, based on the evaluation, and an action is taken, based on the determination.

Abstract: Techniques are described for managing distributed execution of programs. In some situations, the techniques include dynamically modifying the distributed program execution in various manners, such as based on monitored status information. The dynamic modifying of the distributed program execution may include adding and/or removing computing nodes from a cluster that is executing the program, modifying the amount of computing resources that are available for the distributed program execution, terminating or temporarily suspending execution of the program (e.g., if an insufficient quantity of computing nodes of the cluster are available to perform execution), etc.

Abstract: A set of techniques is described for monitoring and analyzing crashes and other malfunctions in a multi-tenant computing environment (e.g. cloud computing environment). The computing environment may host many applications that are executed on different computing resource combinations. The combinations may include varying types and versions of hardware or software resources. A monitoring service is deployed to gather statistical data about the failures occurring in the computing environment. The statistical data is then analyzed to identify abnormally high failure patterns. The failure patterns may be associated with particular computing resource combinations being used to execute particular types of applications. Based on these failure patterns, suggestions can be issued to a user to execute the application using a different computing resource combination. Alternatively, the failure patterns may be used to modify or update the various resources in order to correct the potential malfunctions caused by the resource.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for programmatically simulating one or more system conditions for a network resource using one or more services. In one implementation, a server receives a request to initiate a treatment. The request identifies a treatment definition. The server determines, based on the treatment definition, the one or more services and deploys the one or more services to the network resource. The one or more services simulate the one or more system conditions.

Abstract: A system that implements a scalable data storage service may maintain tables in a non-relational data store on behalf of clients. The system may provide a Web services interface through which service requests are received, and an API usable to request that a table be created, deleted, or described; that an item be stored, retrieved, deleted, or its attributes modified; or that a table be queried (or scanned) with filtered items and/or their attributes returned. An asynchronous workflow may be invoked to create or delete a table. Items stored in tables may be partitioned and indexed using a simple or composite primary key. The system may not impose pre-defined limits on table size, and may employ a flexible schema. The service may provide a best-effort or committed throughput model. The system may automatically scale and/or re-partition tables in response to detecting workload changes, node failures, or other conditions or anomalies.

Abstract: Intelligent content delivery enables content to be delivered to different devices in formats appropriate for those devices based on the capabilities of those devices. A user might access the same piece of content on two different devices, and can automatically receive a higher quality format on a device capable of playing that higher quality format. The user can purchase rights to content in any format, such that as new formats emerge or the user upgrades to devices with enhanced capabilities, the user can receive the improved formats automatically without having to repurchase the content. Further, the user can pause and resume content between devices even when those devices utilize different formats, and can access content on devices not otherwise associated with the user, receiving content in formats that are appropriate for those unknown devices even if the user has not previously accessed content in those formats.
