### AI overview

This article maps major content delivery networks worldwide by examining routed IP prefixes, open port 443 services, TLS certificate names, autonomous system numbers, and geographic data. It reports global and India-specific coverage figures for Google GGC, Facebook FNA/MNA, Netflix, Akamai, Apple, Microsoft, and AWS CloudFront, while noting that certificate-based identification may miss some deployments.

### Source excerpt

In Dec 2022 I mapped popular CDNs like Google GGC, Facebook FNA, Akamai, etc. across Indian networks (post here). Since it's been close to 4 years now, I wanted to do that again. This time, I decided to expand the scope to the entire globe instead of just the Indian networks. Mapping logic The logic here is simple: get unique prefixes from the global routing table, break them into /24s, uniquely sort out /24s, and this gives all routed IP addresses in the world in batches of /24s (256 IPs). Next, identify the ones with an open port 443 and then connect to each of them to figure out the TLS certificate common name. Next, map those IP addresses to AS numbers, locations, etc., using Maxmind's GeoIP Lite databases. Essentially, I am using the BGP routing table instead of scanning the entire 0.0.0.0/0 to avoid scanning for prefixes which are not routed in the global table as well as reserved private IPs, etc. Global stats CDN Provider No. unique ASNs TLS domain Details list URL Google GGC 4247 googlevideo.com csv & json Netflix OCA 2903 oca.nflxvideo.net, assets.nflxext.com csv & json Facebook FNA 2548 'fbcdn.net', fna.whatsapp.net csv & json Akamai 1094 edgesuite.net, edgekey.net, akamaized.net, akamaihd.net, akamaized.net, akamai.net csv & json Microsoft 1655 microsoft.com csv & json Apple 974 apple.com & itunes.apple.com csv & json AWS Cloudfront 217 *.amazonaws.com & *.awsstatic.com csv & json ASN-CDN Mapping table I have mapped ASNs with the presence of each of these CDNs like last time. This makes it easy to read the data instead of going through each of the files separately. Full data in Google Sheet link here and raw CSV is also published here. Notes: Facebook FNA serving Facebook with *.fbcdn.net is almost the same if I look for *.fna.whatsapp.net. Apple seems to have presence in over 236 locations with PCH/Woodynet for hosting their DNS over HTTPS endpoint: doh.dns.apple.com (detailed list here) GGC has a global coverage across 215 countries across the world, f

### AI overview

The article measures IPv6 support on Indian government websites using certificate transparency logs and checks for working IPv4 and IPv6 endpoints. Among 4,924 examined domains under gov.in and nic.in, 174, or about 3.5%, had working IPv6 web endpoints.

### Source excerpt

India has done well on IPv6 deployment thanks to Jio taking the lead in 2016, along with Airtel & VI aggressively catching up. Many of us in the industry are very proud of the work done by these players, resulting in over 78% deployment of IPv6 when measured by APNIC / Google, etc. Jio and Airtel numbers are as high as 95% IPv6 preferred at this point in time. But that's one part of the Indian metrics. IPv6 deployment, DNSSEC usage or even Internet Exchange peering - one can find very different metrics depending on how one is measuring. Both APNIC & Google rely on Google's network and judge how (largely mobile) end users across India are connecting to their (IPv6-enabled) services, and this gives the "eyeballs" side of specs. One key element missing in the picture is IPv6 support on the Government of India websites. I am using "Govt. of India" loosely here. I mean the Central Govt, state governments, as well as UTs and any of their departments. I have always felt that deployment is very poor, as randomly looking across the critical government websites. The service either shows no DNS AAAA record or may have a AAAA record but does not respond to port 80/443, giving an idea of a broken deployment. Measuring deployment is hard since (as far as I know) there is no authoritative source of government domains. Likely NIXI or ERNET, etc. may hold them but then getting them may be a long process and may not work at all. Then I thought of certificate transparency logs. Most of the CAs would log TLS certificates issued in public logs. One can read these logs for *.gov.in and *.nic.in to get a list of all government. used domains under those well-known TLDs and the ones which took a TLS certificate. I did some extra checks, like verifying the A record, working website on IPv4, before looking for IPv6. That way I remove all non-existent/old/expired websites. Also, looked for and www. in some cases as TLS may be issued for both. In case of wildcard TLS certificates like *..gov.in

### AI overview

This tutorial explains how to cache GraphQL API results in a CDN. It describes using edge caching for infrequently changing public data, improving load times and reducing server load, while noting that caching is less useful for frequently changing or private data.

### Source excerpt

At first glance, it might seem like GraphQL is so different from REST and other HTTP API technologies that you have to rethink all of your infrastructure from scratch. But it turns out that it's not hard to add GraphQL to your existing setup and start getting the benefits you want right away, without having to rebuild anything you already have. - You can keep your existing backends and business logic, since you can put GraphQL over REST APIs.
