4. Anycast is the most scalable and standard solution
for dispersed DNS server farm, while layer-4 switch
could deal could do with centralized server farm;

    its not a standard.

<ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc1546.txt>, aka _Host Anycasting 
Service_

Looks pretty standard to me.


        Nope.  Its -INFORMATIONAL-  e.g. Not a Standard.

Not to mention being used in production on several major networks for 
over half a decade (read: "forever") on the Internet is pretty well 
tested technology.

        true enough.  but not "the most scaleable and standard solution"
