    Abstract: Technology for content distribution in wireless mesh network is described. In one embodiment, the wireless mesh network includes a plurality of mesh nodes, wherein each of the mesh nodes includes a content agent configured to receive a content command from a cloud computing content management service communicatively coupled to the wireless mesh network, the content command identifying one or more segments of a media content file corresponding to a media title to be stored on the mesh node. Each mesh node includes a storage system configured to store the one or more segments of the media content file specified in the content command. Each mesh node further includes a content server configured to service requests for playback of the media title from one or more mesh clients. The mesh nodes also include a mesh communication component configured to communicate with other mesh nodes in the wireless mesh network to retrieve segments of the media content file stored on the other nodes.

    Abstract: Techniques for reducing latency between resources of a cloud provider network and end user devices are described. In one embodiment, a system includes a cloud provider network including a first control plane service to manage customer compute instances hosted on resources of the cloud provider network. The system further includes a first provider substrate extension of the cloud provider network connected to a first communications service provider network. The first provider substrate extension includes a first computer system having capacity for executing customer compute instances, is controlled at least in part by the first control plane service via a connection through at least a portion of the first communications service provider network, executes at least a first customer compute instance using the first computer system, wherein the first customer compute instance communicates with a first mobile computer system connected via the first communications service provider network.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling users of a service provider network to create and configure “application profiles” that include parameters related to execution of user workloads at provider substrate extensions. Once an application profile is created, users can request the deployment of user workloads to provider substrate extensions by requesting instance launches based on a defined application profile. The service provider network can then automate the launch and placement of the user's workload at one or more provider substrate extensions using edge-optimized compute instances (e.g., compute instances tailored for execution within provider substrate extension environments). In some embodiments, once such edge-optimized instances are deployed, the service provider network can manage the auto-resizing of the instances in terms of various types of computing resources devoted to the instances, manage the lifecycle of instances to ensure maximum capacity availability at provider substrate extension locations, and perform other instance management processes.
