Abstract
Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein for routing in-bound communications to an infrastructure service. In an implementation, an infrastructure service receives a request from an end point for content associated with an origin. The service sends a connection request to the origin from an initial network address. After detecting a failure of the origin to respond to the connection request, the service sends multiple connection requests to the origin from different network addresses. Upon receiving one or more replies to the connection requests, the service identifies which reply was received first and a network address to which the reply was sent. The service proceeds to establish a connection with the origin using the identified network address and obtains the content from the origin over the connection. The infrastructure service may then send the content to the end point.
