Abstract: A service provider may select one or more physical locations of existing data centers for the user for deployment of the user's computing resources. In various embodiments, the service provider may collect parameters from the user to create a custom selection of physical locations for computing services to be deployed for the user, which may be a strategically selected subset of all of the existing data centers available. Some parameters for selection may include expected location of end-users, cost tolerance, latency tolerance, and fault risk diversity. In some situations, cost may have an inverse relationship with latency, such that as cost increases, latency decreases (and vice versa). The rule sets may be created using the parameters, possibly with weights assigned to different parameters based on information received via the user interface. The rule sets may be formed and used to select physical locations for deployment of computing resources.

Abstract: A service monitoring system executing on one or more processors may have operations that are determined by control information. Control over the operation of the service monitoring system can be exerted through the use of a graphical interface. The graphical interface may present the control information of a new or existing correlation search definition for user interaction. The service monitoring system may maintain a data store of key performance indicator (KPI) data, where a KPI value in the data store is produced by a KPI-defining search query that derives the value from machine data associated with one or more entities that perform a monitored service. A correlation search definition of the service monitoring system determines how a search of the KPI data is conducted, how its data is evaluated to determine whether a triggering condition has been met, and, if so, determines what triggered action is to be initiated.
