Abstract: An application programming interface (API) as a service is disclosed. In embodiments, a client provides code to be executed along with a configuration file for that code. Based on that, virtual machine(s) and load balancer(s) may be selected, a domain name service configured, and throttling and scaling configured. Through this, an API as a service may be provided on behalf of a client with minimal configuration required by the client or an administrator of a web service platform that provides the API as a service.

Abstract: An application programming interface (API) may be provided by a service. A client of the service may provide computer instructions to the service. Configuration information may also be provided by the client. An API may be generated for the client based on the computing instructions. A number of virtual machines may be associated with the API based on the configuration information. The API may be used to process requests.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing a file system interface for use with network-accessible computing resources (e.g., located in a data center). A client computing device of a user may display information regarding at least some such computing resources to the user using a visual representation of a hierarchical file system (e.g., with the computing resources organized hierarchically), and allow standard file system commands to manipulate the computing resources, despite them not actually being part of a file system. Particular combinations of a file system command and a type of computing resource may be mapped to associated operations, which implement actions for computing resources of that type corresponding to functionality of that file system command. In some situations, the computing resources are provided by an online service, such as a configurable network service providing virtual computer networks to clients.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for instance migration to support rapid recovery from correlated failures are described. A failure event affecting one or more compute instances of a provider network, including a particular compute instance hosted at a first instance host, is detected based on an analysis of health status information. A determination is made as to whether a particular compute instance meets an acceptance criterion for a failure-induced migration. The acceptance criterion may be based on storage-related requests from the particular compute instance. If the particular compute instance meets the acceptance criterion, one or more configuration operations are initiated to re-launch the particular compute instance at a different instance host.
