What&#x27;s interesting is seeing some of these numbers. 80 million requests per second the the DynamoDB endpoint.<p>There&#x27;s been a lot of criticism of google for doing fewer DNS requests then that per day to try to avoid domain hijacking attacks by ISPs and other middleware.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.apnic.net&#x2F;2020&#x2F;08&#x2F;21&#x2F;chromiums-impact-on-root-dns-traffic&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.apnic.net&#x2F;2020&#x2F;08&#x2F;21&#x2F;chromiums-impact-on-root-d...</a><p>Given DNS should be pretty fast to serve, be interesting if Amazon &#x2F; Google etc could help out apnic just handle some of these DNS queries (0.5mqps?). I happen to like the effect it has on domain hijacking, and compared to youtube and graphics heavy product pages hard to imagine bandwidth is too crazy high?<p>One note - Dynamo pricing (let&#x27;s say 0.50 per million equests would be around $40&#x2F;second at these volumes?)
