What would make sense is some sort of attribute on the DNS record which instructed servers not to cache it for so long that mistakes have a lasting impact.
Or a pub/sub method of sending an immediate invalidation request, similar to immediate CDN invalidations.
Caching is nice, but mistakes happen.
Which is why you should choose appropriate ttls. Also for CDN you are talking to 1 company which has administative control over the caches. For DNS you have highly distributed caches which are talking to millions of servers. There are nowhere near comparible in terms of management. -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Australia PHONE: +61 2 9871 4742 INTERNET: marka@isc.org
