METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DYNAMICALLY MANAGING REQUESTS FOR COMPUTING CAPACITY

摘要

Embodiments of systems and methods are described for dynamically managing requests for computing capacity from a provider of computing resources. Illustratively, the computing resources may include program execution capabilities, data storage or management capabilities, network bandwidth, etc. The systems or methods automatically allocate computing resources for execution of one or more programs associated with the user. The systems and methods may enable the user to make changes to the allocated resources after execution of the one or more programs has started.

1. A computing system configured to manage execution of programs for users, the system comprising:
an interactive request manager component that is configured to manage execution of programs for users of a program execution service (PES), the interactive request manager component comprising physical computing hardware configured to:
receive a request from a first user to share, with users of the PES, a first virtualization environment generated for the first user, the first virtualization environment including an operating system and at least one program service provided by the PES, the program services comprising a user-customizable load balancer configured to allow a user to distribute workload across one or more of the plurality of computing nodes or one or more instances of the virtualization environment for a user application;update a list of virtualization environments available for selection by users of the PES to provide an updated list of virtualization environments that includes information related to the first virtualization environment;provide the updated list of virtualization environments to users of the PES;receive a selection of the first virtualization environment that is included in the updated list from a second user of the PES; andgenerate a second virtualization environment for the second user, the second virtualization environment based at least in part on the first virtualization environment.
