Summary
Meta Platforms, Inc.
social cdn video
Meta's Autonomous System, serving Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and
Threads to billions of users worldwide.
What it's used for
- Delivering Meta's apps and their heavy image/video content from edge points of presence around the globe.
- Meta Network Appliance (MNA) caches placed inside ISP networks to keep popular content close to users.
Notable
- Traffic here is almost entirely Meta's own first-party services; you won't find unrelated third-party hosting in this ASN.
- Meta peers extremely widely at internet exchanges to keep latency low.
Interesting
- The 2021 global Facebook outage was triggered by a BGP misconfiguration that withdrew Meta's prefixes and even took down internal tooling and building access along with the public apps.
