  • Techniques for modifying a compute instance
    Patent number: 11481230
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods discussed herein are directed to modifying aspects of a compute instance. A user may request a change to the compute instance. The system may derive a state object indicating a future state of the compute instance were the change to be applied. A hash of a subset of the state object's attributes may be computed and provided to the requesting computing component. The system may subsequently proceed with applying the change. A current state object indicating a current state of the compute instance may be derived based on applying the change. An additional hash of the subset of the current state object's attributes may be computed and provided to the requesting computing component. The two hashes may be configured to enable the requesting computing component to verify the change to the compute instance has been implemented.
