So, the question remains, does the poster think that
network operators should band together and operate
shared anycast recursive DNS services? Or does the poster
think that network operators should operate many
recursive DNS servers throughout their infrastructure
and tie them together using anycast?
I don't know what the other poster(s) were referring to, but I was not
suggesting that network operators try to run some unified DNS
infrastructure. It is an intriguing idea, however.
If anycast is a good idea for recursive DNS service, then
there is a 3rd party business opportunity here to operate
global recursive DNS services so that network operators can
focus on running the network, not on providing services
like DNS resolution.
Perhaps even more interesting is being able to sell anycasted reverse DNS
service directly to users that are connected to incompetent providers.
;-) Seriously, though, some benefits can be imagined, like being able to
use the same DNS server on my laptop no matter where in the world I plug
in.
