Custom resources in a resource stack
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method, comprising:
- providing a catalog of resources comprising one or more resources offered by a provider service and one or more custom resources offered by another provider external to the provider service;
receiving a request to construct a configuration of one or more resources defined by a configuration template that specifies user-selected resources from the catalog of resources, wherein the user-selected resources comprise at least a computing resource selected from the one or more resources offered by the provider service and a custom resource offered by another provider external to the provider service;
in response to the request;
creating a configuration of one or more resources based at least in part on the configuration template;
communicating with the other provider to initialize the custom resource and integrate the custom resource and the computing resource based at least on the configuration template; and

Abstract
A resource stack managed by a resource stack provider is created based on a resource stack template that integrates a custom resource from a second provider into the resource stack using a notification system with the second provider. For example, a customer may create a template that defines a resource stack that comprises resources available from the resource stack provider and one or more custom resources provided by a second provider. When a resource stack is created, resources available from the resource stack provider may be provisioned. Custom resources may be initialized by notifying the provider of the custom resource of the requested integration of the custom resource with the resource stack and requested configuration details. The custom resource provider may respond with an indication of successful integration when the custom resource has been successfully initialized. After initializing the resources, the resource stack may be enabled for use.
