Configurable compute instance secure resets

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• receiving, at an Application Programming Interface (API) endpoint, a request to perform a reset of a compute instance that is implemented within a service provider system;
• and
• resetting the compute instance responsive to the receiving of the request, the resetting including,
• obtaining a first volume, and
• attaching the first volume to the compute instance,
• wherein prior to the resetting and after the resetting, the compute instance executes on a same server device and utilizes a same instance identifier that identifies the compute instance within the service provider system.

A system comprising:

• a compute instance implemented by a first one or more electronic devices of a service provider system;
• and
• an orchestration manager implemented by a second one or more electronic devices of the service provider system that, upon a receipt of a request to perform a reset of the compute instance, is to:
• reset the compute instance responsive to the receipt of the request, the reset including,
• obtaining a first volume, and
• attaching the first volume to the compute instance,
• wherein prior to the reset and after the reset of the compute instance, the compute instance executes on a same electronic device and utilizes a same instance identifier that identifies the compute instance within the service provider system.
