Provider with US and EU locations with anycast (Already using BuyVM)

MannDude

Already using BuyVM and it's working great, but need a second provider with both US and EU locations with an anycast network option.

Provider should be considered 'production quality', since this will be part of a larger PowerDNS setup.

Fly.io?

Introduced this to Vultr while working there, it's BYOIP afaik, but they allow you to do stuff like announce via quagga etc.

If Vultr doesn't work check with https://rage4.com/

what is it called when a dns server returns you a different IP based on the location where you're querying it from?

You are thinking about GeoDNS (Geographical Domain Name System)

@RoyaleHosting matches the production part, not so sure about anycast.

@MannDude Interested to know who you end up with, I too have a project around PowerDNS (but probably on a much smaller scale than yours).

Some people just like the company. I'm a satisfied customer and since they're one of the very few legitimate hosts that are active here I will happily recommend them. I'm sure @sillycat thinks the same way.
