Hosting ARIN Content
Summary
Google LLC
cloud cdn search video
Google's primary Autonomous System, carrying traffic for Search, Gmail,
YouTube, Android, and much of the consumer Google product surface.
What it's used for
- Serving Google's own web properties and APIs worldwide.
- Google Global Cache (GGC) nodes and edge caching for YouTube and other heavy media.
- Note that Google Cloud Platform customer workloads largely announce from a separate ASN, AS396982 (Google Cloud), rather than this one.
Notable
8.8.8.0/24and8.8.4.0/24— the8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4public DNS resolvers — are announced by Google and among the most-queried IPs anywhere.- Google operates a global private backbone, so an IP here is often far from the user it is serving thanks to anycast and edge caching.
Interesting
- Google was an early operator of a fully IPv6-capable backbone and publishes its IPv6 adoption statistics publicly.
