Patent attributes
A technology is provided for proxying network traffic. A computer system activates a proxy function in response to a network communication identified in a compute service of a service provider environment. The system receives parameters from the network communication originating from a client at the proxy function and the parameters identify a destination function and a network packet. The proxy function is applied to the network packet. The system launches the destination function with the network packet and parameters from the proxy function, wherein the destination function is configured to launch on a computing instance of the compute service.
