Thanks All, That was my understanding and research as well. Further, I have
heard back directly from AWS and they have stated that while "yes"
technically you can use it, you are prone to dns routing issues at the very
least and should not expect everything to "just work" as it would with
RFC1918.

Appreciate the feedback. Case closed.

I fully agree with William and it's used in AWS infrastructure (VPC

Best regards,

Hi,

The Carrier NAT space? The only difference between that and RFC1918
space is that when you have an address conflict with a third party
using 100.64.0.0/10 it is 100% entirely your fault for
misappropriating it.

Generally speaking, 100.64.0.0/10 should not be assigned to servers,
only client machines. Assigning it to servers creates a probability of
conflict that the space was meant to solve.
