Abstract
A subnet of a logically isolated network within a provider network may be shared between client accounts of the provider network. A request to share a subnet of a logically isolated network created for one client account with another client account may be received. A link between an account object for the other client account and a shared subnet object for the subnet may be stored. When a request to host a resource with the subnet is received, an evaluation of the graph may indicate whether the request to place the host is permitted. If permitted, the resource for the other client host may be hosted within the subnet.
