Overview of DDIL

In most situations involving cloud computing, consistent and reliable connectivity is table stakes. Some situations present unique challenges. This includes those where connections are prone to denial, disruption, intermittence, or limitation, collectively termed as Denied, Disrupted, Intermittent, and Limited (DDIL) connectivity. Let’s take a closer look at these terms:

• Denied connectivity: This refers to environments where communication networks are unavailable or inaccessible. This could be due to a variety of reasons, including deliberate jamming, physical damage to infrastructure, or restrictive policies that block access to certain networks.
• Disrupted connectivity: This includes scenarios where established networks face intermittent disruptions due to various factors, such as environmental conditions, hardware malfunctions, or cyber-attacks. These disruptions can vary in scale and frequency, potentially leading to significant delays and loss...
