Cloud Provider IP Address Resolution

Is there a way to determine if an IP address resolved to a particular cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP, Digital Ocean)? Something like this:

# Returns 'Azure'
whichCloud('256.256.256.256')

While you could write a tool based on data such as:

  1. Amazon - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-ip-ranges.html
  2. GCP - https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/faq#find_ip_range
  3. Azure - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=56519

I'm not aware of something directly like this. However, you can change it around a bit. For example, my host is on Amazon. I can do a whois my.ip.addr.ess and I get:

$ whois my.ip.is.here

The other environments should be similar. It's not exactly what you want but it might get you closer.
