Abstract
Technology is described for providing an ownership transfer service in virtual computing service environment. Computing resources under the control of one or multiple customers are stored in an ownership transfer account. Workflows based on a pre-defined set of triggers for releasing the computing resources from the ownership transfer account are established. Exclusive control over the computing resources may be transferred from the single or multiple customers to at least one of the multiple customers or to a receiving customer according to a triggering event. The exclusive control over the computing resources from one or at least one of the multiple customers is terminated upon occurrence of one of the pre-defined set of triggers or temporary control is granted based on rules such as time periods.
