"Let’s start with a little history. A problem that we were facing was that standard, existing routing protocols, primarily Border Gateway Protocol or BGP, which is used for all pairing among different networks, is focused on individual boxes, and essentially what this means is that they have to take a very local view about connectivity. As soon as they can find a path between a source and a destination, two computers that want to talk to each other across the network, then BGP is happy. It doesn’t try to find the *best* path, and it doesn’t try to do dynamic optimisation."
