Argo and the Cloudflare Global Private Backbone

Re:Argo and the Cloudflare Global Private Backbone by ignoramous on Monday May 13, 2019 @02:09PM (#19902008)

Is Argo in same category as Google's GlobalLoadBalancer and AWS' GlobalAccelerator? If not, what are the differences?

Can Argo be enabled at network layer, say VPN, and for other protocols say VoIP and not just HTTP/S?

Does Argo take inspiration from published research? If so, which ones?

Thanks.

There are similarities between Argo and the Google/Amazon products you mention (as well as Azure's Front Door). All are aiming to solve similar problems inherent to routing on the Internet.

Re: enabling Argo at the network layer, watch this space :) I'd love to hear more about what you'd like to do such a product — email me! [email protected]
