1. A method, comprising:

receiving, by a management service and from a client device, a plurality of instance configurations;

receiving, by the management service and from the client device, information identifying a launch request for a compute instance, wherein the information identifying the launch request does not specify an instance configuration of the plurality of instance configurations or a specific configuration attribute;

responsive to the launch request: determining, by the management service, one or more candidate shapes for the compute instance based at least in part on the plurality of instance configurations;

selecting, by the management service and from the one or more candidate shapes, a launch shape for the compute instance;

launching, by the management service, the compute instance using the launch shape; and

providing, by the management service and to the client device, access to the compute instance, launched based, at least in part, on the launch shape.
