Abstract
Described herein are systems, methods, and software to enhance failover operations in a cloud computing environment. In one implementation, a method of operating a first service instance in a cloud computing environment includes obtaining a communication from a computing asset, wherein the communication comprises a first destination address. The method further provides replacing the first destination address with a second destination address in the communication, wherein the second destination address comprises a shared address for failover from a second service instance. After replacing the address, the method determines whether the communication is permitted based on the second destination address, and if permitted, processes the communication in accordance with a service executing on the service instance.
