Year Month and date (if available) Entity type Entity name Stage Details
2011 January 11 ISP Comcast IPv6 access support Internet Service Provider (ISP) Comcast activates its first 25 IPv6-enabled users in the Littleton, Colorado area using Apple computers. Comcast uses a Native Dual Stack configuration that supports both IPv4 and IPv6, using DOCSIS 3.0.[1][2]
2011 May 3 Hosting service Linode IPv6 hosting support Server hosting service Linode begins offering native IPv6 support.[3]
2011 May 24 Hosting service Amazon Web Services IPv6 hosting support Amazon Web Services offers IPv6 support for its Elastic Load Balancers (ELBs) in US East and Ireland. All load balancers in these regions have publicly routable IPv6 addresses in addition to their IPv4 addresses.[4]
2011 June 8 World IPv6 Day happens. On this day, major websites, including Google services, Facebook, Yahoo, and Bing, activate IPv6. The vast majority of devices are expected to be unaffected: they will either use IPv6 or fallback to IPv4.[5] The day is deemed successful.[6] See World IPv6 Day and World IPv6 Launch Day for more.
2012 June 6 World IPv6 launch occurs. This is a permanent version of the IPv6 launch that occurred on the previous World IPv6 Day in 2011, instead of the 24-hour version used that day.[7] See World IPv6 Day and World IPv6 Launch Day for more.
2014 June 17 Hosting service DigitalOcean IPv6 hosting support Server hosting service DigitalOcean begins offering native IPv6 support.[8][9]
2017 January 25 Hosting service Amazon Web Services IPv6 hosting support Amazon Web Services begins offering IPv6 support for EC2 instances in virtual private clouds (VPCs) in 15 regions, and Application Load Balancers in 9 regions.[10] An initial announcement around this appears to have been made on December 1, 2016.[11]
2017 September 20 Hosting service Google Cloud Platform IPv6 hosting support Google Cloud Platform announces general availability (GA) for IPv6 global load balancing.[12]
