> It really, really pains me that so many cloud providers are taking so damn long to support IPv6. Does Amazon even support it yet? I don't work at Amazon, but I spoke with someone about this recently, and I believe the issue is that Amazon provides virtual hardware and a virtual networking stack, and the tooling required to virtualize the networking stack in IPv6 isn't mature enough yet. For providers that offer dedicated hardware, this isn't an issue, but Amazon's services abstract over a very complicated and intertwined stack, so I can understand why it would take them longer.
