Curious - In what way would building an Anycast network be expensive ?
- mrkurt 7y agoRunning your own bgp in multiple data centers requires some reasonable network engineering skills. Anycast, specifically, is a complex beast. If you use multiple transit providers, you have to continuously tweak things to make sure people aren’t getting weird routes. Network providers like to send people over the cheapest (in dollars) routes sometimes, which makes things slow.
