Summary

The text discusses how Cloudflare has been adding resilience to its network by monitoring the quality of the Internet, detecting issues, and implementing automatic mitigation mechanisms. It explains that while Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the cornerstone of internet routing, it does not provide first-class mechanisms to automatically deal with events causing brownouts. To address this issue, Cloudflare has deployed its own mechanisms to react to unpredictable events and improve network performance for its customers. The company uses a combination of open-source software and tools to monitor the Internet's infrastructure, detect issues, and take necessary actions. By enhancing the reliability and resilience of the complex network of networks, Cloudflare aims to build a better internet.
