The VPC-SC supported products page enlists the following repositories to be available to all the projects
https://cloud.google.com/vpc-service-controls/docs/supported-products#registry
However, seems the gcr.io/google-appengine is available too?
It could be that either gcr.io/google-appengine is not available to every project or the documentation needs a refresh. I asked the maintainers of the documentation for clarification.
Thanks for pointing this out.
I’ll update this answer once the team replies.

I have several projects in GCP which are publically accessible and will become commercial services. Since I found myself with many projects, I thought that I would try out the Google Cloud organization feature. However, I cannot complete the creation due to odd requirements.
Google puts forward a "Checklist" to set up Google Cloud for the organization. If I go under IAM & Admin -> Identity & Organization, the only option there is to go to the checklist to complete it. However, the checklist includes mandatory steps like creating VPCs and a certain Resource hierarchy, which are things that I don't need/want. I am the only developer and don't want to pay more for services that I don't use. I cannot remove these options. As such, the organization seems to be "unconfigured" from the point of view of Google.
At the same time, I'm wondering if it really changes anything and if there is any benefit for me to use an organization.
Edit: I am not following any documentation per se, as there is a quite detailed interactive "tutorial" which takes you through all the configuration steps directly on GCP. The problem is precisely that I cannot chose an option not in the tutorial for some steps. To give you an idea, see this blog post, specifically Step 5.
Refer to 7.2 Deprecation Policy. Google will announce if it intends to discontinue or make backwards incompatible changes to the Services specified at the URL in the next sentence. Google will use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to operate those Services versions and features identified at https://cloud.google.com/terms/deprecation without these changes for at least one year after that announcement, unless (as Google determines in its reasonable good faith judgment)
Question, what is the announcement will be made? Is it email notice to project owner, or announcement on official website?
Thanks
Usually when you are being affected by the deprecation of a GCP tool, the project owner gets an email mentioning what they are going to be affected by as well as some guidance to be able to decrease the impact of that.
Also, they make an announcement on the documentation with the dates in which they plan to deprecate the tools. Something like this is usually added.
Hope you find this useful!
I am a newbie to cf and want to contribute cloud-foundry. Can somebody point me to a newbie guide? or anything else?
Thanks,
There are a lot of ways that you can contribute.
The easiest is to help answer questions. You can do that here on SO, on the CF mailing lists or on Slack.
Another easy way to help is with documentation. Docs are managed on Github and it's easy to submit fixes and improvements via PRs.
If you want to contribute code then you're going to need to dig in a bit more first. Cloud Foundry is a large project made up of many different pieces, so the first step is picking a component that interests you / where you'd like to contribute. This page in the docs has a good overview of the different components, so it's a good reference.
Once you've narrowed it down to a specific component of CF, then check the Github page for that component and look for instructions on contributing. Most of the teams have details about how to get started hacking on their projects. Here's one example, which is the Loggregator project.
You can also check the Issues page in Github or the team's Tracker project for outstanding issues that might need resolved. That can give you inspiration for ways to pitch in and help with the code.
Hope that helps!
I've tried using csupload to get my sysprep'd .vhd file up to Azure Storage, but when I do I get "The subscription is not authorized for this feature." I do have Virtual Machines preview enabled on my account, but I never enabled the VM Role beta, and I can't find anywhere in the portal where it's still offered. I see new videos from Microsoft, including this one posted three days ago, referring to the VM Role, so I assume it's still an offering.
The MSDN documentation is a mess... some of it is old, some of it is contradictory, some of it has to do with Virtual Machines (IaaS) rather than VM Role (PaaS). I've been digging through every link I can find for a few days now.
I realize that this question is slightly more broad than a typical StackOverflow question, and I apologize for that, but... is there still a VM Role (PaaS) that's available to someone who didn't sign up for the original beta? And if there is, how do I get access? I can't find a single announcement from Microsoft about closing the beta period, or moving to General Availability. If the plan is to dump the VM Role (PaaS) in favor of persistent virtual machines (IaaS), I can't find information about that. Anyone know what the plan is?
Thanks!
Scott
As far as I know classic/stateless/non-persistent VM Role feature has been in beta for more than 2.5 years. Microsoft don’t recommend live production deployments that depend on Beta features.
It seems that starting this year, Microsoft has not been accepting any customer for Beta VM Role. Everyone is being advised to move to Windows Azure Virtual Machine (Iaas). There has not been any official announcement in this regard.
People who had VM Role Beta Access they can keep using till any further announcement but no new customer are being accepted. You can reach Windows Azure Support team and they should be able to answer in better fashion.
Also, If Windows Azure Virtual Machine feature is enable you can use Windows Azure PowerShell to upload sysprep'd .vhd .
Update :
Update: "The Windows Azure VM Role is being completely retired".
Here is the updated documentation posted recently : http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/3dae01d2-2397-47ed-a134-f9ffe58a9b52.aspx
Is anyone aware of an Amazon API that allows you to purchase items programmatically?
I looked at tons of their web services (Product Advertising, MWS, etc.), and none of them seemed to do this.
I found this thread that seemed to suggest there was no solution, but there was no definitive answer: https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=45127
Just to be clear, I want to make a purchase with MY payment details, not on behalf of any user. I figured if ANYONE supported this, it would be Amazon. But I realize there may be business (security?) reasons not to support this as well...
http://www.zinc.io/ shows that it is, in fact, possible to do this.
I've read around the net that you could do this by sending crafted _GET responses, although I, myself, am currently trying to figure out which ones to send.
UPDATE 2019/12/10 Even though my answer was accepted as the best answer it's outdated. Please see this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/17180929/799155
It's not possible – I guess for a bunch of security reasons. Read through the thread you posted in your question ;)

Amazon does not offer APIs to place a customer order. Neither a
Corporate Account or the Associate Program will allow you to build the
type of solution you are describing.

Amazon still does not offer this service, to the best of my knowledge,
and this isn't something I would ever expect to see included in the
Fulfillment Web Service which is specific to the FBA program.
