Abstract

Techniques for securely instantiating control plane components of provider services, at least a portion of which are instantiated within secure execution environments, are described herein. A request to instantiate the control plane of a service provided by a computing resource service provider is fulfilled by selecting a target computer system. The target computer system is selected based at least in part on the hardware capabilities of the target computer system. The control plane is then instantiated within a secure execution environment operating on the target computer system.
