Whats brittle about DNS? Caching?
BGP and us-east-1 fair :D
- bawolff 3y agoDNSSec is pretty brittle. I think this is a very different definition of brittle than the original poster meant
- tptacek 3y agoYeah, but almost nobody uses it (it's got low single digits uptake in the US, and has actually decline in some years), so that's not the part of DNS that's making it brittle for deployments.
- talideon 3y agoDescribing DNSSEC as brittle is the height of understatement.
- AdamJacobMuller 3y agoBrittle, painful and with a tiny minority who scream at you for being stupid because you're not using it and complain about these problems.
- woodruffw 3y agoCaching, people misunderstanding (and misusing) TTLs, bespoke service discovery on top of DNS without understanding the aforementioned, bespoke stringly-typed configuration languages in various DNS records, etc.
