Abstract:
1. A machine-implemented method for serving remote application program interface calls, the machine-implemented method comprising: receiving from a remote computing device, at an intermediary server device, a request for data made via a remote application program interface call; transmitting, from the intermediary server device to a lookup server via a private backend network, a request for an address of a data center that serves data corresponding to the requested data; receiving, at the intermediary server device, the address of the data center that serves the corresponding data; transmitting, by the intermediary server device via the private backend network, a data center specific call to the address of the data center; in response to the data center specific call, receiving a response from the data center, the response from the data center including the corresponding data; and transmitting a response to the request for the data to the remote computing device, wherein the response to the request for the data is based on the corresponding data received from the data center.
