When a user accesses content describing an item able to be purchased using a first website, and the user subsequently purchases the item using a second website within a threshold length of time of the access to the content, the purchase may be inferred to have been induced by the content, even though the content would normally direct the user to the first website. To correlate purchases across different websites, data identifying the user's device or a user account and data identifying the item is acquired when the content is accessed by the user. Subsequently, additional data is acquired when the item is purchased. If the additional data corresponds to the previous data, this may be used to determine that the same user has purchased the same item described by the content that was accessed.

Systems and method for attributing transactions from multiple websites to content producers

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. The system can generate an adopted resource definition from metadata of the adopted resource, to be included in the template or to validate the template.
