Abstract: A virtual private network (VPN) gateway selects a VPN connection, from multiple VPN connections established between a network VPN gateway and a remote VPN gateway, based on performance factors such as throughput. A system may measure throughput in megabytes per second (Mbps). More specifically, a VPN gateway (e.g., a remote VPN gateway or a network VPN gateway) can configure a routing preference that selects a VPN connection that is more performant based on a cryptographic algorithm that is used for the VPN connection. The VPN gateway can update the routing preference to select an alternative VPN connection when the performance of the VPN connection suffers.

Abstract: Parameters of a pool of computing resources to be utilized for machine learning tasks from a set of entities are stored, including a category of the computing resources, and a post-task-completion retention period during which, after completion of a task, at least a portion of data stored at the resource is not to be deleted. A compute instance of the pool is assigned to a task requested from the set of entities after determining that one or more configuration settings of the instance satisfy a preference indicated in the request for the task, and that the retention period of the instance relative to a completion of an earlier task on the instance has not expired. A result of the task is stored.
