    Abstract: A configuration management service provides data identifying its subscribers to a secure sharing service that executes in an account that has a higher security level than a service account used to provide the configuration management service. The secure sharing service securely determines whether each subscriber has authorized producer services to share resource configuration data with the configuration management service. If a subscriber has authorized such sharing, information identifying the subscriber can be stored in a location accessible to the producer services. If a subscriber has not authorized such sharing, the secure sharing service will not make the subscriber's information available to the producer services. The producer services can use the subscriber data to provide resource configuration data to the configuration management service only for those subscribers that subscribe to both the configuration management service and to the producer services.

    Abstract: A system for storing and retrieving configuration data causes time-based and content-based indexes to be stored on a storage service. The system receives a request to identify the value of a property during a time period indicated by the request. The system retrieves, from the storage service, a time-based index associated with the time period. The retrieved time-based index is searched to identify a content index associated with the time period. The system retrieves the content index from the storage service, and searches the content index to identify a value, of the property, that is associated with the time period. The system generates a response to the request based on the results of the search of the content index.

    Abstract: Configurations of computing resources established on a web-based computing service can be monitored, managed and controlled. According to one embodiment, a method may include discovering a set of computing resources being used by an enterprise. The disclosed resource configuration service can deliver a set of resource-specific data that uniquely identifies each computing resource and describes each resource's configuration state. The resource configuration service monitors the computing environment and detects changes to the configurations of computing resources. The resource configuration service can deliver a stream of notifications when computing resources are created, updated, deleted or otherwise reconfigured. The notifications can be used by, for example, software tools or system administrators.

    Abstract: A configuration history service for web-based computing resources is implemented by capturing and storing a historical record of each configuration state for each computing resource in a subscriber's account. Files of the configuration history store information about a computing resource type offered by the web service. The file comprises records for each particular resource of that type that is or was actively configured in the subscriber's account during the period that the configuration history service is active in the account. Each record lists a particular configuration state, at a particular point in time, for a particular computing resource. The configuration history of a computing resource can be displayed as a timeline by which a subscriber can access information describing the configuration state of the particular computing resource at any point in time.
