It doesn't mean the outbound will have network issues but an additional wait is another network call that does not make much of a sense in the same network/DC

I still can't wrap my head around the
issues that could occur internally inside the data center/network for the secondary nodes , Something congestion/ packet drop will again increase the wait time. Relying on the master seems to be the better option as suggested.

Some one might be 🔍 for tunneling protocols 😂😂😂 and #Alibaba thought this guy might need a Tunnel boring machine 🤣🤣.

* uses as a forwarding plane. 😄

Is it true that you guys run external bgp sessions inside a container ? 😄

The router just seems to be used for forwarding planes .

ohh please do repost it if you see it somewhere in bsky, based on the transfer rate 🤣 that thing could be massive with a heat sink as large as a human leg.

Shit 😂, i have been going a bit off topic sorry for that.

since the majority of the az outage was happening via the third party networks, AWS kind of fixed it once in for all.
December 11, 2024 at 10:48 PM
yeah that's a good place to start , but often times they still have to use overlay or dark fiber to secure connectivity.

For the last few years they kind of started ditching the provider overlay parts and started using the available dark fiber for a direct dwdm cross connectivity between AZs.

+ the connector other attenuation factor still exists 😄, I would really like to see service providers trenching more HCF rather than seeing it inside the DC
December 11, 2024 at 10:27 PM
Based on some recent publication it will be averaging with a loss of 0.08±0.03 dB/km.

which is actually an improvement but i have never seen a rack in a DC thats being connected over by a patch cord of length more than 10 meters

Nice 👍, I would be pretty much interested to see the next iteration of this with partitioning, so many ideas are coming to my mind with fixed bytes per record + byte range fetches with a commit point 🔍

And funny enough when you reach the vpc part and explain the transport layer works a bit differently by proxying arp , there 🧠 will go 🎇🔥🎆

ohhh they would be like why the hell would we need go through this shit 😂
December 4, 2024 at 7:22 AM
Yeah it's more intimidating , and then there are vendor specific hell holes 😂for some of these devices.

But the cool part is that the way they conceived distributed systems in the 90's is pretty cool with routing and loop detection protocols. 😄
December 4, 2024 at 7:16 AM
And then to get things more interesting we have overlay network protocols such as MPLS,GRE vxlan etc....
December 4, 2024 at 6:58 AM
Yeah , it's like another swirl when it comes to networking, Starting with the essentials from socket/ transport protocols and then moving to Ethernet ,FIB, RIB, NAT , ROUTING .. etc 😖

I still haven't found a proper blog post covering all the above topics from a Dev perspective

Funny 🤣 enough i just came up with it yesterday for a certain query use case , i also want to try dynamo db to act as a meta store for the object entries.
