Configurable computing resource allocation policies

A method, comprising:

• configuring, by at least one computing device, an organization resource allocation policy for an organization in response to receiving an approval from the organization, wherein the organization resource allocation policy prohibits fulfillment of resource allocation requests by a hosted computing environment operated by a third party that does not comply with one or more allocation conditions specified in the organization resource allocation policy for the organization;
• receiving, by the at least one computing device, a resource allocation request to allocate a computing resource within the hosted computing environment, the resource allocation request associated with an account of an organization;
• determining, by the at least one computing device, that a provider resource allocation policy of the hosted computing environment applies to the resource allocation request;
• determining, by the at least one computing device, that a fulfillment of the resource allocation request would not violate the provider resource allocation policy;
• determining, by the at least one computing device, that the fulfillment of the resource allocation request would violate the organization resource allocation policy configured by the organization within the hosted computing environment, wherein the organization resource allocation policy prohibits fulfillment of resource allocation requests by the hosted computing environment that does not comply with one or more allocation conditions specified in the organization resource allocation policy for the organization;
• refraining from automatically fulfilling, by the at least one computing device, the resource allocation request in response to determining that the fulfillment of the resource allocation request would violate the organization resource allocation policy;
• and
• sending, by the computing device, a notification to a user associated with the resource allocation request, wherein the notification recommends a modification to the resource allocation request that would bring the resource allocation request in compliance with the organization resource allocation policy.

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium comprising machine-readable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to:

• configure an organization resource allocation policy for an organization in response to receiving an approval from the organization, wherein the organization resource allocation policy prohibits fulfillment of resource allocation requests by a hosted computing environment operated by a third party that does not comply with one or more allocation conditions specified in the organization resource allocation policy for the organization;
• receive a resource allocation request to allocate a computing resource within the hosted computing environment, the resource allocation request associated with an account of an organization;
• determine that a provider resource allocation policy of the hosted computing environment applies to the resource allocation request;
• determine that a fulfillment of the resource allocation request would not violate the provider resource allocation policy;
• determine that the fulfillment of the resource allocation request would violate the organization resource allocation policy configured by the organization within the hosted computing environment, wherein the organization resource allocation policy prohibits fulfillment of resource allocation requests by the hosted computing environment that does not comply with one or more allocation conditions specified in the organization resource allocation policy for the organization;
• refrain from automatically fulfilling the resource allocation request in response to determining that the fulfillment of the resource allocation request would violate the organization resource allocation policy;
• and
• send a notification to a user associated with the resource allocation request, wherein the notification recommends a modification to the resource allocation request that would bring the resource allocation request in compliance with the organization resource allocation policy.
