This disclosure describes techniques implemented partly by a communications service for identifying and altering undesirable portions of communication data, such as audio data and video data, from a communication session between computing devices. For example, the communications service may monitor the communications session to alter or remove undesirable audio data, such as a dog barking, a doorbell ringing, etc., and/or video data, such as rude gestures, inappropriate facial expressions, etc. The communications service may stream the communication data for the communication session partly through managed servers and analyze the communication data to detect undesirable portions. The communications service may alter or remove the portions of communication data received from a first user device, such as by filtering, refraining from transmitting, or modifying the undesirable portions. The communications service may send the modified communication data to a second user device engaged in the communication session after removing the undesirable portions.

Altering undesirable communication data for communication sessions

A technology is described for applying an encrypted customer security rule set to an application firewall. An example method may include obtaining an encrypted customer security rule from a shared data store for use by an application firewall that operates at an entry point to a computing service environment that utilizes security rules to monitor, filter, and manipulate network traffic. The customer encryption key used to decrypt the encrypted customer security rule in volatile computer memory may be obtained from a key data store and the encrypted customer security rule may be decrypted in the volatile computer memory using the customer encryption key, thereby forming a corresponding unencrypted customer security rule in the volatile computer memory. A volatile computer memory location containing the unencrypted customer security rule may be provided to the application firewall to enable the unencrypted customer security rule to be applied by the application firewall.

Security rules for application firewalls

Functionality is disclosed herein for utilizing a physical model to define infrastructure associated with the service provider network or other networks. The model is analyzed to identify resources represented by the physical model as well as any connections between the resources. Based upon the analysis, configuration data that describes the configuration of the resources within the service provider network may be generated and used to perform one or more actions. For example, the configuration data might be used to generate a deployment template and/or used to provision the resources within the service provider network or other networks. After provisioning, the model may show information relating to the operation of the resources within the network.

Defining software infrastructure using a physical model

Functionality is disclosed herein for utilizing a picture created by a customer of a service provider network to define infrastructure associated with the service provider network or other networks. The picture may be a picture of a drawing or a model, for instance. The picture is analyzed to identify resources depicted in the picture as well as any connections between the resources. Based upon the analysis, configuration data that describes the configuration of the resources within the service provider network may be generated and used to perform one or more actions. For example, the configuration data might be used to generate a deployment template and/or used to provision the resources within the service provider network or other networks.

Defining software infrastructure using a picture

Technology for laser communications is provided. In one example, a method may include generating a communication for transmission from a first terrestrial computing device to a second terrestrial computing device and encoding the communication as an optical transmission from a first laser array in communication with the first terrestrial computing device. The optical transmission may be transmitted, using the first laser array, to a first satellite and relayed from the first satellite to a second satellite using a second laser array at the first satellite. The optical transmission may be further relayed from the second satellite to the second terrestrial computing device using a third laser array at the second satellite. The lasers in the first, second and third laser arrays may be low power laser diodes configured for a power level less than 1 kW.
