IP address restrictions from the cloudAnswered

Given the IP addresses is limited to 3, and doesn't seem to have an option to set a domain option instead, how can I ensure my backend - in this case, based in the cloud is always working.

The cloud platform (AWS) is assigned a random IP address and will currently break every update or automatically weekly! 

Answer

Every cloud provider worth using has static IPs. Some call it something silly. Amazon, for instance, calls a static IP an “elastic IP”. Why? Who knows – maybe too many employees with time on their hands so they use that excess workforce to rename well-known terms?

A simple google search will get you your answer: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/elastic-ip-addresses-eip.html

Thanks for the info! I was looking all over for static ip options, this explains why I couldn't find it!

For those interested:I am hosting a lambda function as a wrapper based on this example:
