Lightning Talk: Building an Open Source Anycast CDN

Nate Sales

With a growing reliance on the internet, content delivery is more important than ever. But how does it work? Does anycast really break the internet? In this talk I hope to share my experiences in building an Open Source Anycast CDN as a highschool student, and provide an insight into how I'm using anycast and open source software for DNS and HTTP content delivery.

Nate is a student and software developer with a focus on infrastructure and security. He works on many layers of the stack but most often enjoys ensuring packets arrive at their intended destination and writing software to make that job easier. He can be frequently found working on open source networking projects and loves learning new things.
