Why content providers need IPv6
Content providers are urged to adopt IPv6 for better services, bypassing ISP translation devices. IPv6 improves user experience, reduces latency, and boosts reliability. Major companies like Google and Netflix are already benefiting from IPv6, pushing ISPs to support its adoption.

Content providers are encouraged to adopt IPv6 to enhance their services and avoid reliance on ISP translation devices. While IPv4 remains prevalent, IPv6 offers benefits such as improved user experience, reduced latency, and increased reliability. By delivering content over IPv6, providers can bypass translation devices, ensuring faster and more dependable service delivery. This is particularly crucial for latency-sensitive applications and competitive markets where delays can impact user engagement. With major players like Google, Netflix, and Meta already delivering a significant portion of their traffic over IPv6, ISPs are incentivized to support IPv6 adoption to streamline operations and enhance user experiences. Embracing IPv6 not only future-proofs content delivery but also contributes to a more efficient and robust internet ecosystem.

2 commentsIf K8s had been released pure V6 I wouldn't be asking this because the rules would be implemented differently. That said, HAProxy and/or some kind of iBGP intermediate to shard the load and do failover implies work being done, albiet not every packet (once the state is done to get to which backend handles which frontend query)
