This document specifies how to use DNS (Domain Name Service) SRV RRs (Resource Records) to locate services for the AFS distributed file system and how the priority and weight values of the SRV RR should be interpreted in the server ranking system used by AFS. It updates RFC 1183 to deprecate the use of the AFSDB RR to locate AFS cell database servers and provides guidance for backward compatibility.
We describe Rubin Observatory's experience with offering a data access facility (and associated services including our Science Platform) deployed on Google cloud infrastructure as part of our pre-Operations Data Preview program.
