OSRM vs Technitium DNS Server: at a glance
What is OSRM?
OSRM follows plaza routing with driving-side detection and turn costs against traffic.
OSRM releases monthly, date-versioned. Version 26.9.0 in September added routing through pedestrian areas and plazas; 26.10.0 resolves driving side from way coordinates, costs turns against traffic, simplifies plaza outlines at extraction and fixes plaza edge cases. Version 26.11.0 on November 1 is dependency bumps and build tooling.
What is Technitium DNS Server?
Technitium adds LDAP sign-in to the DNS server that already gained SSO in v15.
Technitium DNS Server has shipped eleven v15 releases since April, from v15.0 with OpenID Connect single sign-on to v15.6.2 on October 17. v15.5 in September added LDAP authentication and a zone file editor in the web console, and nearly every release since has carried fixes for reported security issues. Announcements are short and point to the CHANGELOG for detail.
OSRM vs Technitium DNS Server: editorial side-by-side
OSRM
2.5DEVOPS
OSRM follows plaza routing with driving-side detection and turn costs against traffic.
◆ Current state
OSRM releases monthly, date-versioned. Version 26.9.0 in September added routing through pedestrian areas and plazas; 26.10.0 resolves driving side from way coordinates, costs turns against traffic, simplifies plaza outlines at extraction and fixes plaza edge cases. Version 26.11.0 on November 1 is dependency bumps and build tooling.
◆ Where it's heading
The plaza work is being refined in the releases after it shipped, while the rest of the monthly train is CI and dependency upkeep. Feature work arrives every few months rather than every release.
◆ Prediction
26.12.0 in early December is the likely next entry; whether it carries routing changes or only maintenance is unclear.
Technitium DNS Server
5.0DEVOPS
Technitium adds LDAP sign-in to the DNS server that already gained SSO in v15.
◆ Current state
Technitium DNS Server has shipped eleven v15 releases since April, from v15.0 with OpenID Connect single sign-on to v15.6.2 on October 17. v15.5 in September added LDAP authentication and a zone file editor in the web console, and nearly every release since has carried fixes for reported security issues. Announcements are short and point to the CHANGELOG for detail.
◆ Where it's heading
The v15 line keeps extending admin identity, from OIDC to SSO scopes to LDAP, while patch releases arrive every one to two weeks with security fixes. That frequency of reported security issues is the thread to watch.
◆ Prediction
More v15.6.x service updates are likely; whether a v16 line follows is unclear from the feed.
