The query I ran was `dig ns aws.amazon.com`

Okay a DNS question, while checking name server for aws.amazon.com, I get:

```
aws.amazon.com. 4092 IN CNAME tp.8e49140c2-frontier.amazon.com.
tp.8e49140c2-frontier.amazon.com. 46 IN CNAME dr49lng3n1n2s.cloudfront.net.
dr49lng3n1n2s.cloudfront.net. 12 IN A 108.158.61.79
...

```

If I understand correctly, NS for aws.amazon.com is a chain of CNAME(s) to actual NS domain?

#dns #amazon #aws

@hiway happy new year to you (and the beautiful animals!)

@albonycal GG! More power to you!

@albonycal for sure :ablobfoxbongohyper:

extremely based slide to end on for the train hackers #38c3

@phil also, is cdn-aws.deb.d.o and cloudfront.d.n same service? Seem to mention CDN backend(s).

PS - cdn-aws.deb.d.o webpage seems to ref to deb.d.o (in most places) instead of cdn-aws.deb.d.o

In any case, thanks for answering and your work.

@nixCraft Nextcloud has this nice snow mode (which I keep ON year long).

@badri I second

@ravi lol, nice names though

@phil @sahil Even with that taking more of the load, mirror.accum.se / ftp.se.d.o serves over 1TiB/day of debian packages and package lists.

@quotebot YOLO!

@phil also do people know/use cdn-aws.deb.d.o?

Any stats or traffic number from there?

@maswan

@phil Does this now includes snapshot.d.o traffic as well?

I was interested in Debian Mirrors Hierarchy and flow of updates, so went ahead a did a deep dive in Debian mirror infrastructure https://blog.sahilister.in/2024/12/debian-mirrors-hierarchy/

@anurag great to see you posting here, welcome!

@tecoholic Can concur the issue(s) on my KDE install on Debian. Updating all the way fixed it (which was a relief).

Repair work mentioned completed on 29th https://status.hetzner.com/incident/ec8a2f28-e964-46cb-94fa-bb4629c19777. Took the ship 6 days to arrive at scene and 3 more to complete the repair it seems.
