Abstract
Techniques for customer-initiated virtual machine resource allocation sharing are described. A hardware virtualization service of a cloud provider network receives a request to launch a first virtual machine, wherein the first virtual machine is of a first virtual machine type, the first virtual machine type having a resource amount allocated to virtual machines of the first virtual machine type. The hardware virtualization service causes a launch of the first virtual machine on a host computer system of the cloud provider network. The host computer system shares an allocation of the resource amount from a corresponding resource of the host computer system between the first virtual machine and a second virtual machine, wherein the second virtual machine is of the first virtual machine type.
