Re: Shared cache servers on an island's IXP

Hosting authoritative and recursive dns servers at the IXP would
drastically improve the experience of users most of the time.

Of course, Stephane considerations are correct and there’s no solution for
when global connectivity is lost and responses will stop being sent.

Friends from PCH (www.pch.net <http://www.pch.net>) operate backend

would be very happy to help.

I'm sure they would, I'm a big fan of their work BTW. Though hosting
them in a densely connected area isn't the same as it will in remote
locations, I guess there could be some work to be done to get it running
properly, as Stephane wrote.

How would you think we could work on that ? I mean, disconnected or
extremely high latency scenarii should be on a research roadmap by
SpaceX' standards, right ? ;-)

Best regards,
