Detecting configuration drift for computing resource stacks

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• creating a computing resource stack at a service provider network based on an infrastructure template, wherein the infrastructure template includes a descriptive representation of one or more computing resources of the computing resource stack, and wherein the descriptive representation includes defined configuration settings used by an infrastructure modeling service to deploy the computing resource stack at the service provider network;
• identifying one or more modifications made outside of the infrastructure modeling service to the defined configuration settings indicated by the infrastructure template;
• causing information indicating the one or more modifications made outside of the infrastructure modeling service to the defined configuration settings to be presented;
• creating a baseline snapshot of configuration settings associated with the one or more computing resources of the computing resource stack;
• updating the computing resource stack based on an update to the infrastructure template;
• and
• updating the baseline snapshot based on the update to the computing resource stack.

A system comprising:

• a first one or more electronic devices comprising a processor and a memory;
• a second one or more electronic devices comprising a processor and a memory;
• an infrastructure modeling service of a service provider network implemented by the first one or more electronic devices, the infrastructure modeling service including instructions that upon execution cause the first one or more electronic devices to:
• create a baseline snapshot of configuration settings associated with one or more computing resources of a computing resource stack implemented in the service provider network based on an infrastructure template, wherein the infrastructure template includes a descriptive representation of the one or more computing resources, and wherein the descriptive representation includes configuration information used by the infrastructure modeling service to deploy the one or more computing resources at the service provider network,
• create a current snapshot of the configuration settings associated with the one or more computing resources of the computing resource stack,
• identify one or more modifications made outside of the infrastructure modeling service to the configuration settings, and
• cause information indicating the one or more modifications made outside of the infrastructure modeling service to the configuration settings to be presented,
• update the computing resource stack based on an update to the infrastructure template, and
• update the baseline snapshot based on the update to the computing resource stack;
• and
• a computing resource service implemented by the second one or more electronic devices, and further implementing at least one of the one or more computing resources of the computing resource stack, the computing resource service including instructions that upon execution cause the second one or more electronic devices to:
• receive a request to modify at least one configuration setting associated with a computing resource of the computing resource stack, and
• modify the at least one configuration setting associated with the computing resource.
