Systems and methods for enhanced content-based routing with signature-based authentication

Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods for routing network requests using signature-based authentication may include receiving, by a load balancer, a network request including a destination uniform resource indicator (URI) and a signature header; verifying, by the load balancer, a certificate for a domain name of the destination URI; initiating, by the load balancer, a serverless instance based on the verifying; allocating, by the serverless instance, a region for the network request; copying, by the serverless instance, the signature header of the network request; retrieving, by the serverless instance, a first address for an intended destination address of the network request; resolving, by the serverless instance, the destination URI to the intended destination address, wherein the intended destination address is different than the first address; and sending, by the serverless instance, content of the network request and the signature header to the intended destination address without modifying the signature header.
