Abstract

A system that hosts computing resources may implement optimistically granting permission to host computing resources. A request for permission to host a computing resource may be received by a control plane. If the control plane determines that the resource host is the first to request permission to host the resource, then the control plane may store an indication of permission that blocks other resource hosts from obtaining permission to host the computing resource and sending an acknowledgement of permission to the resource host that requested permission.
