A request - can you call this “Traffic Engineering via DNS” (or “DNS Traffic Engineering”)? When I first saw this I had a to do a double-take because DNS Load Balancing also refers to the practice of sending queries to different servers behind a load balancer. It is conceivable that, instead of ECS, which raises the ire of privacy enthusiasts, a name server could return a single “formula” that a recursive server could use to determine what answer to pass onward. The formula would be large (in bytes) though, making this a “pipe dream” in the current DNS protocol.
