oh there is definitely a market for this, and cusotmers willing to pay for it. at $job, me and another team member basically did technical deep dives into issues that occured for $customer. Usually they needed deep root cause analysis as of

in some setups, you could send non IP packets (especially in MPLS fabric if accounting happens by LSP).

also, the moment it does happen you usually have non technical systems which are even harder to scale. (customer support for instance, or your sales/billing pipeline).

also, the math for some cloud providers doesn't work that well if you are in regions which are not EU-west or the US. even in europe, AWS has "meh" regions compared to azure or many of the colo/dc locations.

also, is allows you to focus on the problems you are having right now (building a product that runs on a server) instead of theoretical problems you might never reach later. (Scalability and portability). VM's are quite scalable, espec

isn't this how most countries changed to a total war system? looking at world war 2, most countries radically changed their economies and nationalised a ton of industry to be able to conduct warfare.

BGP is called the swiss army knife of networking for a reason. I have used it for so many aspects of different solutions, from things to distributed load balancing without actual load balancers to ddos mitigation to building redundant netwo

this is far, far harder to do compared to DNS flag days. changing the value to something else is futile. What needs to happen is people should allow ICMP into their networks and allow PMTUD to work correctly. Path MTU discovery has solved

ofcourse this would be possible (with just another router) but this would still result in inefficienties. IP Fragmentation is something which you do not want (it was removed from IPv6 for a good reason). TCP does not like it when IP packets

in DC Networks, 9k frames and pathmtu is very common. the issue however is that the MTU across the internet is 1500, and you cannot selectively use mtu's depending on routes, so you end up with 9k MTU at edge routers which need to spli
