Abstract: Features are disclosed for facilitating remote management of network directories of organizations by a directory management system. The network directories may change over time, experiencing growth in size and number of current connections, increased latency, reduced performance, and the like. The network directories may also shrink over time, experience fewer connections, etc. Organizations can define scaling policies by which the directory management system can automatically respond to the occurrence of various events, such as changes in the size or usage of the organizations' network directories, by scaling resources associated with the directories. The directory management system can perform various scaling actions on-demand or without requiring additional action by the organizations, thereby reducing the time and effort required by the organizations to monitor their own directories and implement (or request implementation of) changes.

Abstract: A customer utilizes an interface provided by a virtual computer system service to provision a virtual machine instance and join this instance to a directory. The interface may have previously obtained the domain name and the Internet Protocol addresses for one or more directories available to the customer for joining the virtual machine instance. The virtual computer system service may communicate with a managed directory service to obtain a set of temporary credentials that may be used to transmit a request to the directory to allow joining of the virtual machine instance. Upon provisioning of the instance, an agent operating within the instance may be configured to obtain the domain name and Internet Protocol addresses for the directory to establish a connection with the directory. The agent may also be configured to obtain the set of temporary credentials to transmit a request to the directory for joining of the instance.

Abstract: Techniques for connecting computer system entities to remote computer system resources are described herein. A computer system entity that requests access to a remote computer system resource has that request fulfilled by a managed directory service which receives the request and connects the computer system entity to the remote computer system resource. While connected, the managed directory service receives commands to perform operations on the remote computer system resource and, if the computer system entity is authorized to perform the operations on the remote computer system resource, the managed directory service performs the operation on the remote computer system resource.

Abstract: Techniques for connecting computer system entities to remotely extended local computer system resources are described herein. A computer system entity that requests access to a local computer system resource has that request fulfilled by a managed directory service which receives the request and connects the computer system entity to the local computer system resource. While connected, the managed directory service extends the local computer system resource to a corresponding extended remote computer system resource, receives commands to perform operations on the local or extended remote computer system resources and, if the computer system entity is authorized to perform the operations on the appropriate computer system resource, the managed directory service performs the operations on the appropriate computer system resource.

Abstract: Techniques for connecting computer system entities to remotely located computer system resources by redirecting locators are described herein. A computer system entity that requests access to a computer system resource may first obtain an identifier for that resource and, based on the identifier, may determine the region for that resource. A routing service then resolves the locator to locate a content management system that stores executable scripts that provide access to the computer system resources by redirecting the locator. The location of the executable scripts is based at least in part on the processing of the locator by the content management system.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing federated access to end-users of virtual machines. The method includes receiving a request from a user to access a resource outside of the user's original security domain. The user's existing security credentials are forwarded to an authentication entity, which determines if the user's credentials are authentic. If it is determined that the user's credentials are authentic, the user's target identity provider generates a security token that provides the virtual machine user with access to the resource, the resource residing in an external security domain. The user may log on to the virtual machine with access to the desired resource, subject to the privileges identified in the security token.
