Anycast vs Global Server Load Balancing on the Brightboard

In this Brightboard Lesson, Buu Lam compares the difference between using Global Server Load Balancing vs Anycast when it comes to providing global resiliency for applications that reside in multiple locations.
As referenced in the video, you can dive a bit deeper into global server load balancing algorithms starting with this video: • Global Traffic Manager...

BGP routes are very tunable, but you will be at the discretion of what your service providers or peers will accept and propagate. The major benefit here is that you do not need a proprietary solution to implement it. Most customers considering global DNS load balancing will likely already have their own BGP AS.
Of course this is also a solution already solved by the major cloud providers as well where most of this is abstracted away beyond some "knob tuning".

Beautiful. Please do more video. Need more content creators like you rather than those monetizing freaks.

this is what i needed.

You actually HAVE some control over anycast BGP routing, specially using BGP communities (path prepending, local pref, etc.)
