US Patent 10958734 Emulation of cloud computing service regions

Systems and techniques are provided for the emulation of cloud computing service regions. An emulation system receives an API request including an indication of an endpoint associated with a target region of a cloud computing service from a system in a virtual private cloud. Attributes are extracted from the API request. A manipulated API request is generated from the extracted attributes of the API request. The manipulated API request includes an indication of an endpoint located in a standard region of the cloud computing service. The manipulated API request is transmitted to the endpoint located in the standard region of the cloud computing service.
