Abstract: Methods and apparatus for private network peering in virtual network environments in which peerings between virtual client private networks on a provider network may be established by clients via an API to a peering service. The peering service and API 104 may allow clients to dynamically establish and manage virtual network transit centers on the provider network at which virtual ports may be established and configured, virtual peerings between private networks may be requested and, if accepted, established, and routing information for the peerings may be specified and exchanged. Once a virtual peering between client private networks is established, packets may be exchanged between the respective client private networks via the peering over the network substrate according to the overlay network technology used by the provider network, for example an encapsulation protocol technology.

Abstract: Systems and method for the management of virtual machine instances are provided. A network data transmission analysis system can host virtual machine networks. A component of a hosted virtual machine network is configured in a manner to receive commands directed towards a simulated network device. The component may then execute a process or processes on the hosted virtual machine network which correspond to the received command.

Abstract: A request to establish a VPN connection between a customer data center and a set of resources of a provider network is received. A new isolated virtual network (IVN) is established to implement a virtual private gateway to be used for the connection. One or more protocol processing engines (PPEs) are instantiated within the IVN, and a respective VPN tunnel is configured between each of the PPEs and the customer data center. Routing information pertaining to the set of resources is provided to the customer data center via at least one of the VPN tunnels, enabling routing of customer data to the set of resources within the provider network from the customer data center.

Abstract: Techniques are described for facilitating sharing and reuse of executable software images between multiple execution environments. In at least some situations, the executable software images are virtual machine images (e.g., images that are bootable or otherwise loadable by a virtual machine in a particular virtualization environment, and that each include operating system software and/or software for one or more application programs, optionally along with one or more hard disks or other representations of stored data). The described techniques may include use of an image conversion tool that is configured to support interactions with multiple distinct types of source execution environments to extract executable software images from those environments, and to modify extracted software images for execution in one or more distinct types of destination execution environments, optionally as directed by one or more users via a GUI provided by the image conversion tool.

Abstract: Architectures and techniques for uploading virtual machine (VM) images to a network-accessible computing platform from a client device while simultaneously performing error detection of the VM images at the client device. One technique can include transmitting a request from the client device to upload VM images. The technique can further include receiving an application from the computing platform and using the application to reconstitute the VM images from a first stream at the client device while performing error detection. The technique also includes using the application to upload the VM images from a second stream at the client device to the computing platform while performing the error detection.

Abstract: Systems and methods involve receiving a connectivity subscription request for one or more connections, such as a virtual private network (VPN) connection. A connectivity subscription request may be received through an application programming interface (API) call and the connectivity subscription request may indicate that a user associated with a connection wants to receive a notification when a connectivity event occurs. A connectivity event can occur when changes to the connection are detected, such as when the connection becomes active, when the connection becomes inactive, or when one or more tunnel connections related to the connection becomes disconnected. A potential problem associated with the connectivity event may be detected and a potential solution to the problem may be determined. The potential solution can be sent to a user associated with the connectivity event.
