Publication number: 20220200926Abstract: Methods and apparatus for interfaces to manage virtual network interface objects. A system may include resource instances and a network interface virtualization coordinator. Responsive to a record creation request, the coordinator creates an interface records that may include an IP address, subnet information and security properties. The coordinator may, in response to a request to attach the record to a resource instance, enable traffic directed to the IP address to flow to the resource instance. In response to a subsequent detach request, the traffic to the IP address may be disabled at the resource instance. The same interface record may be attached to another resource instance in response to another attach request, enabling traffic directed to the IP address to flow to the second resource instance.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 3, 2022Publication date: June 23, 2022Applicant: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Eric W. Schultze, Aaron C. Thompson, Arijit Ganguly, Padmini Chandrasekhar Iyer, Tobias L. Holgers, Christopher J. Lefelhocz, Ian Roger Searle

Patent number: 9319272Abstract: Methods and apparatus that enable appliance service instances to be provisioned in a subnet of a customer's private network on a service provider network without provisioning the backend nodes in the customer's subnet. At least one front-end node instance is provisioned in the customer's subnet. Instead of provisioning the backend nodes in the customer's subnet, the appliance service provider provisions the backend node instances in the appliance service provider's subnet. In addition, at least the front-end node instance may be provided with multiple interfaces. At least two of the interfaces face different subnets, with one facing the customer subnet and the other facing the backend subnet operated by the appliance service provider in which the backend node instances are implemented. In some implementations, a third interface may face a management subnet so that the owner of the front-end node instance may manage the instance.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2011Date of Patent: April 19, 2016Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Eric J.

Patent number: 8813225Abstract: Methods and apparatus for provider-arbitrated mandatory access control policies in cloud computing environments are disclosed. A system includes an access manager, and a plurality of resources configurable to provide a plurality of distributed, web-accessible services. Each service has a respective service manager. The access manager determines whether a mandatory access control policy document specified by a service manager of a particular service applies to an administration request, wherein the policy indicates that a permission setting for a resource being used to implement at least a portion of the particular service cannot be modified by a client with administrative rights on the resource. In response to determining that the policy document applies, and that an evaluation of the policy document indicates that an administrative operation specified in the administration request is prohibited by the policy, the access manager rejects the administration request.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2012Date of Patent: August 19, 2014Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Erik J.
