This paper presents the architecture and the preliminary evaluation ofa request routing DNS server that decouples server selectionfrom the rest of DNS functionality. Our DNS server, which we refer toas MyXDNS, exposes well-defined APIs for uploading an externallycomputed server selection policy and for interacting with an external networkproximity service. With MyXDNS, researchers can explore their ownnetwork proximity metrics and request routing algorithms withouthaving to worry about DNS internals. Furthermore, MyXDNS is based onopen-source MyDNS and is available to public. Stress-testing of MyXDNSindicated that it achieves its flexibility at an acceptable cost: asingle MyXDNS running on a low-level server can process 3000 req/secwith sub-millisecond response even in the presence of continuousupdates to server selection policy.
