Abstract

Techniques for operating a multi-homed computing instance process are described herein. First credentials associated with a first attribute of a first account may be obtained. A process executing on a computing instance may communicate with the first account over a first communication channel based at least in part on the first credentials. Instructions may be received for the process to communicate with both the first account and a second account. Second credentials associated with a second attribute of the second account may be obtained. The second credentials may be obtained based, at least in part, on the first attribute acquiring the second attribute. The process may communicate with the second account over a second communication channel based at least in part on the second credentials. Additionally, the process may communicate with multiple different representations of a particular account, such as different representations that are hosted in different respective regions.
