An emotional moment at the TAT-14 cable landing station as we powered down the system after almost 20 years. While one chapter has ended, a new one has begun with the Havfrue system providing transatlantic service since last month. 🙌

RFC7706 describes local mirroring of the root zone to reduce latency. Could help if there's a DDoS against root, too tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7706
