Sure but then the DNS server is the one to many multiplexer. You can shove things around all you want, you'll still end up with either a single point of failure

Sure but then the DNS server is the one to many multiplexer. You can shove things around all you want, you'll still end up with either a single point of failure or weak consistency.
- jewel 14y agoSince DNS records change rarely, it's trivial to have multiple active DNS servers for a domain. In normal deployments, DNS doesn't have a single point of failure. It does have "weak consistency", like you say, but that doesn't matter if the records rarely change.
