Abstract:
The transmission of data on computer networks according to one or more policies is disclosed. A policy may specify, among other things, various parameters which are to be followed when transmitting initiating network traffic. Multiple network interfaces may be installed on a server to enable transmission of data from the single server according a number of discrete configuration settings implicated by the various policies. The multiple network interfaces may correspond to separate physical components, with each component configured independently to implement a feature of a policy. The multiple network interfaces may also correspond to a single physical component that exposes multiple network interfaces, both to the network and to the server on which it is installed.
Abstract:
Operating profiles for consumers of computing resources may be automatically determined based on an analysis of actual resource usage measurements and other operating metrics. Measurements may be taken while a consumer, such as a virtual machine instance, uses computing resources, such as those provided by a host. A profile may be dynamically determined based on those measurements. Profiles may be generalized such that groups of consumers with similar usage profiles are associated with a single profile. Assignment decisions may be made based on the profiles, and computing resources may be reallocated or oversubscribed if the profiles indicate that the consumers are unlikely to fully utilize the resources reserved for them. Oversubscribed resources may be monitored, and consumers may be transferred to different resource providers if contention for resources is too high.
Abstract:
Customers in a multi-tenant environment can obtain energy consumption information for a set of resources or other computing components used by those customers, including time-accurate accounting for various components of those resources utilized on behalf of the customer. A customer can also have the ability to specify how the resources are to be operated when used for the customer, in order to manage the amount of energy consumption. The accounting can be performed even when the resources are shared among multiple users or entities. Various hardware components or agents can be used to provide detailed energy consumption information for those components that is associated with a particular customer. The information can be used not only for accounting and monitoring purposes, but also to make dynamic adjustments based on various changes in usage, energy consumption, or other such factors.

Abstract:
A system and method for preventing dependency problems, such as deadlocks, within startup of computing service workflows, such as workflows that occur within computing assets that provide network-based computing services. The system and method creates a remedial workflow or action for the computing services to address deadlocks or other blocking conditions within the services which may occur should the underlying computing assets need to be restarted, rebooted or sequentially execute and reach a problematic operational state. The system and method will determine the reliance of each computing service upon the functionality of one or more other network-based computing services and structure the remedial workflow accordingly. Other aspects of the disclosure are described in the detailed description, figures, and claims.

Abstract:
Disclosed are various embodiments of a computing device for validating the configuration of components of a component assembly. The computing device serves a boot image executable by a component of the component assembly. Expected configuration data associated with the component is identified by the computing device, and actual configuration data associated with the component is obtained by the computing device. The computing device determines a validation response for the component assembly based at least in part upon a comparison of the expected configuration data and the actual configuration data.

Abstract:
Disclosed are various embodiments for monitoring, maintaining, tracking, and/or integrating inventory items in one or more systems. An inventory integration system may monitor the states, dependencies, and/or locations of inventory items across one or more data centers and/or similar structures. Issues detected may be escalated and remedial actions to the issues may be generated. The inventory integration system may communicate with various external resources in order to convey various information associated with the items of inventory and/or the data centers.
