Geoff Huston joins us again for his monthly chat, this time to consider the contradictory theory of a resolverless DNS. Contradictory because the DNS is by its nature reliant on resolvers.

We'll discuss the historical process of how DNS names are resolved and how content providers, through their open DNS services, have sought to optimise this process. This optimisation has led some, including Geoff, to consider 'server push' combined with DNSSEC, as a viable means to speed up the DNS, reduce privacy leakage and constrain the potential for failures.
