- toast0 3y agoA highly reliable service might run one partition on a completely separate serving stack. It's worth asking.
- tedunangst 3y agoWith a completely separate architecture that also loads the root zones in a completely different way?
- toast0 3y agoIt's certainly possible to do. Public recursive DNS isn't that big of a spec that you can't have two independent teams doing it, and mandate they do things differently when possible. Run the two /24s on different ASNs, too. I've had sales teams pitch me on their authoritative DNS service running heterogenously, although I guessing both partitions gathered config from a single place, but we didn't get that far in the potential customer pipeline. Of course, just because it's possible doesn't mean they're likely to do it.
- tedunangst 3y agoMaybe also run by a separate company with a different CEO for additional redundancy. :) so now we've got 1. and 8.
- arp242 3y agoBest to service from a different planet, in case something happens to this one.
- BlueTemplar 3y agoI hear Musk has been working on that. (j/k, 40 min ping time...)
- jacurtis 3y agoI mean, if its truly the same then it sort of defeats the purpose. That's my way of saying: it is seperate infrastructure Remember that Cloudflare is probably the second largest DNS Resolver in the world. They aren't just going to tack two IP's onto the same system. The entire system would be completely independent for reasons exactly like what happened today.
