I think the easiest would be to setup reverse proxy with cloudfront distribution
<niksnut>
doesn't it already work? search.nixos.org has an IPv6 address
<garbas>
niksnut: the frontend works. the backend (elasticsearch instance) is ipv4 only
<garbas>
bonzai.io said they will most likely not enable this since they only received 2 requests (plus ours) so far
<niksnut>
ah, the standard lie
<niksnut>
"nobody else has asked about IPv6"
<niksnut>
but wouldn't a proxy potentially slow things down a lot?
<garbas>
that depends. it would definetly be slower since it has to do one more hop but it might be fast enough. especiallyy if we are smart with caching.
<garbas>
if we deploy in the same region as their backend maybe it would be completely usable
<garbas>
and i understand it is not perfect, but i think it is easier for us to create a proxy then to manage elasticsearch instance
