Folks, FYI, Nick Kernan, my Masters student, has deployed a web portal that facilitates the comparison between various DNS resolvers, including ISP-provided and some influential publicly available resolvers (Google’s public DNS, OpenDNS, Quad9, and Cloudflare). The comparison is based on two factors: the latency of DNS resolutions and the latency of TCP handshake with the CDN edge server selected through a given resolver. The results are based on recurrent monthly measurements from RIPE Atlas probes that have both IPv4 and v6 connectivity, have an ISP-provided resolver available for comparison, and which meet certain requirements regarding probe versions and reliability. You can specify the desired month of measurement, a region of interest, and the CDNs to analyze. You can access Nick’s portal through https://dns-web-portal.netlify.app/ <https://dns-web-portal.netlify.app/> The details of the methodology are in Nick’s thesis, which awaits some copyright permissions before being made publicly available. In the meantime, Nick (cc’ed) and I would be happy to answer any questions. Regards, —Misha Rabinovich
