Abstract
Techniques are described for automatically managing shared computing environments, such as a shared computing environment made available by a provider entity for simultaneous use by multiple third-party clients in exchange for fees. The functionality provided by a shared computing environment may have various forms, including in some situations to enable a client to execute a client-provided software program within the shared computing environment. The managing of shared computing environments may include performing various automated operations, including monitoring operational performance of particular shared computing environments and the use of shared computing environments by particular clients, and using information from the monitoring to provide additional functionality to the clients and/or to the providers of the shared computing environments. The providing of shared computing environments may in some situations be performed by an automated program execution service that manages execution of various programs for various users of the program execution service.
