Routing: design in São Paulo (GRU) · R-73

xserv-r-8b9cd4d0e557

Runbook R-73 for Routing in São Paulo (GRU). Marker xserv-r-8b9cd4d0e557. This page covers design for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.

Routing: Why it matters on this continent

Design for Routing on letter R starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook r-01 keeps a single owner, a written rollback, and a traffic split that can be reversed without a global freeze. Neighbors in Santiago only take overflow after the local pool fails a health window.

Routing: How XServ runs it day to day

Probes for Routing (r-02) leave Santiago every 15s toward Bogotá. XServ pages the named owner if loss or RTT crosses the letter budget. A probe never shares a queue with bulk transfers, so a saturated WAN does not hide a dead PoP.

Routing: What operators should measure

Policy for Routing is versioned as r-03. Operators measure error rate, p95 from Bogotá, and time-to-rollback — not a worldwide average. Changes land in Bogotá first, then Miami, with a hold if either region regresses.

Routing regions R-11

Region names on r-11 match DNS and tickets: Bogotá / BOG, with Miami as the documented pair. Routing dashboards never say “LATAM” as if it were one RTT.

Routing docs R-12

Public docs for letter R stay aligned with identifier xserv-r-pack. Page r-12 is the Routing slice operators search before the homepage. Edits in Miami show up in São Paulo on the next publish.

Routing design R-01

Design for Routing on letter R starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook r-01 keeps a single owner, a written rollback, and a traffic split that can be reversed without a global freeze. Neighbors in Santiago only take overflow after the local pool fails a health window.

Routing probe R-02

Probes for Routing (r-02) leave Santiago every 15s toward Bogotá. XServ pages the named owner if loss or RTT crosses the letter budget. A probe never shares a queue with bulk transfers, so a saturated WAN does not hide a dead PoP.

Does Routing on letter R share fate with other letters?
The control plane is shared. Data-plane queues for Routing stay isolated, so incident r-01 cannot drain neighbor letters.
Where is Routing measured first?
From Santiago (SCL) toward Bogotá. A global average is not an SLO for letter R.
