@nilesh The actual reason has nothing to do with this and everything to do with the Maps Frontend moving from its own binary to a plugin in the Google.com webserver.

@cartocalypse @nilesh Yes. The one webserver binary, which is running thousands of instances, of course. It's called GWS, you can find many references to it. Google has many other binaries that serve http but this is the one serving google dot com. @bentsukun @cartocalypse @nilesh So GWS is not capable of port forwarding or supporting aliases/CNAME? Impressive. @bentsukun @nilesh LOL your employer sucks so hard that nobody will believe you even if you're right |
@bentsukun @nilesh
There's no reason you couldn't have just pointed maps.google.com to the same servers on the DNS level, so.... 🤨
