But CFOs like monetization. Was that thread about IPv6 or CFO?


Amazon's in this case. They are monetizing their lack of v6 support requiring you go through all kinds of expensive hoops instead of doing the obvious and routing v6 packets.


They're getting better at it, at least. They also recently added v6 support in their NLBs and you can get a /56 for every VPC for direct access. I don't think they offer BYO v6 yet, as they do for v4, but it will come.

That's a start, I guess. Before all they had was some weird VPN something or other. Let me guess though: they are monetizing their market failure.
