Round Robin DNS

["Ken Yeo" <kenyeo () on-linecorp com>]

I would like to get your comments on pros and cons on using round robin DNS
to load balance web servers that are located in geographical disperse
locations?

What current technologies you are using to run disaster recovery? Says we
have site A and site B, if site caught a fire, all web browser will be
redirected to site B web server only.

We are planning to use round robin DNS with BGP to achieve this, is there a
better way to do this?


Thanks.
