Abstract
A provider network may implement resource management and billing for logical and physical availability zones. Consolidated billing techniques may be applied to the aggregate usage of multiple linked user accounts. A billing setting may indicate whether consolidated billing is performed according to resource consumption in logical availability zones or physical availability zones. Mappings to physical availability zones may be provided to linked user accounts so that computing resources may be consumed according to either logical or physical availability zones. Capacity reservations for computing resources for a particular physical availability zone may be made available to each of the linked user accounts for consumption.
