Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for handling file operations from a hosted computing instance via a secure compute layer. The secure compute layer is presented to the instance as a virtualized service device that is locally addressable by the instance. Software within the instance can submit file operations to the virtualized service device, which the secure compute layer can translate into calls to a network-accessible storage service. Results from the calls can then be passed back to the instance through the virtualized service device. As a result, the instance can communicate with a variety of different network services, without itself implementing network communications for those services.
