Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for resolving discrepancies that occur to interrelated computing resources from computing resource drift. Users may describe computing resources in an infrastructure template. However, computing resource drift occurs when “out-of-band” modifications are made to the computing resources and are not reflected in the infrastructure template. To resolve discrepancies between the infrastructure template and the out-of-band modifications to the computing resources, a notification may be output to a user account associated with the computing resources detailing the differences. An updated infrastructure template may be received that resolves the differences, such as by including configuration settings that reflect a current state of the computing resources. The computing resources may then execute a workflow using the updated template, such that the workflow is executed on all of the computing resources in a current state.

Abstract: A resource management system of a computing resource service provider performs adoptions of virtual resource instances, such as virtual machine instances and virtual data store instances that were not instantiated as members of a logical container, into logical containers that are used to manage members of the logical containers as a group. Adopting such “candidate” resources that were not generated from programmable infrastructure templates allows the resources to be managed in accordance with an infrastructure-as-code framework, alongside resources that are generated from such templates. A template for launching infrastructure instances may be modified to include an adopted resource definition describing the configuration of the adopted resource, so that management operations can be performed on the adopted resource together with the other members of the container.
