互联网遭受了众所周知的性能，可靠性和安全问题。但是，由于范围内部署的困难，拟议的改进几乎没有采用。我们观察到，与其尝试在一般情况下解决这些问题，还可以通过专注于针对流行内容提供商与其客户之间的路径的解决方案来取得重大进展，这些解决方案带有大量的互联网流量。在本文中，我们确定了可能为可部署解决方案提供立足点的这些属性：它们通常很短。我们的测量结果表明，Google直接连接到托管超过60％的最终用户前缀的网络，并且其他大型内容提供商具有相似的连接性。这些直接路径开辟了解决方案的可能性，以避免了范围内的可部署性的头痛，我们绘制了人们在这种情况下可能采取的提高性能和安全性的方法。
The Internet suffers from well-known performance, reliability, and security problems. However, proposed improvements have seen little adoption due to the difficulties of Internet-wide deployment. We observe that, instead of trying to solve these problems in the general case, it may be possible to make substantial progress by focusing on solutions tailored to the paths between popular content providers and their clients, which carry a large share of Internet traffic. In this paper, we identify one property of these paths that may provide a foothold for deployable solutions: they are often very short. Our measurements show that Google connects directly to networks hosting more than 60% of end-user prefixes, and that other large content providers have similar connectivity. These direct paths open the possibility of solutions that sidestep the headache of Internet-wide deployability, and we sketch approaches one might take to improve performance and security in this setting.
