Abstract
Techniques are described for identifying resources within a region of a cloud-computing environment. A Resource Identification Service (RIS) may be configured to obtain a flock configuration file comprising resource discovery data associated with a service. The resource discovery data may indicate a set of parameters with which a previously existing resource of the cloud-computing environment is to be identified. RIS may execute operations to identify the previously existing resource based at least in part on matching attributes associated with previously existing resource to the set of parameters of the resource discovery data. The RIS may identify, from the flock configuration file, a set of import operations to perform to obtain an identifier corresponding to the previously existing resource. The identifier may be provided to cause the previously existing resource to be utilized in a region build.
