  views are different: SIX gives a good summary what happens on which 
RS, in particular wrt to filtering reasons. and the view of historic 
data is also beneficial.

Nice work! Very well done, Chris!

You may also want to have a look at this article [0] where DE-CIX' LGis
explained. And it also provides a nice API.

I mentioned this the last time we had this conversation, but I 
want to say it again.  As mentioned, folks are quick to complain 
and slow to compliment.  So, I want to add a +1 to the original 
email.

I am having my first dealings with them since about 10 years ago.  
And now, just like then, the support folks are stellar in their 
interaction with me.  

Thanks a LOT! :)

Well said my friend. Support often not gets the respect they deserve, when it 
comes to ARINthiugh a big shout out! Always outstanding.

One of the biggest challenges we found of leveraging commodity hardware
was locating a suitable OS that is not only fit-for-purpose in our
service provider environment, but that could also leverage the hardware
at its disposal to its fullest potential.

It's hard enough for one vendor to get both their own hardware and
software right most of the time. We posited it would be doubly hard for
an operator to marry hardware and software vendors that do not
necessarily co-ordinate with one another, if your goal is to run a
profit-oriented operational network.

Sure, the idea is great on paper, but there aren't that many shops that
can throw warm bodies at this problem like some of the more established
content and cloud folk.

If it was easy, I certainly wouldn't have started this thread in the
first place :-).

Mark.

We have probably largely converged to the same place. Your vantage
point sees practical offerings where IPIP may make more sense to you
than MPLS, my vantage point definitely only implements the rich
features I need in MPLS tunnels (RSVP-TE, L2 pseudowires, FRR, L3 MPLS
VPN, all of which technically could be done of course with IPIPIP
tunnels) And the theory we agree that less is more.

ECMP appears to be your main pain point, the rich features are not
relevant, and you mentioned commodity hardware being able to hash on
IPIP. I feel this may be a very special case where HW can do IPIP hash
but not MPLSIP hash. Out of curiosity, what is this hardware? Jericho
can do MPLSIP, I know JNPR's pipeline offering, Paradise, can.  Or
perhaps it's not even that the underlaying hardware you have, cannot
do, it's that the NOS you are being offered is so focused on your
use-case, it doesn't do anything else reasonably, then of course that
use-case is best by default.
