Cloud DNS+

Fast, secure, and reliable DNS service anywhere in the world

CDNetworks’ Cloud DNS+ provides a managed cloud-based authoritative DNS (CDNS+) service that is secure, reliable, scalable, and offers high performance under any traffic conditions anywhere in the world. It ensures that your website always displays up-to-date content in near real-time through a globally distributed platform leveraging IP anycast technology.

Cloud Load Balancer (CLB) is a feature of Cloud DNS+ that enables organizations to combine multiple delivery strategies to better align with business and technical needs. Once CDNS becomes authoritative for a zone, CLB can apply load balancing policies to DNS queries and manage user traffic in real-time to optimize performance and operational efficiencies.

Cloud Load Balancer (CLB)

CLB empowers organizations to combine multiple delivery strategies to better align with their business and technical requirements. With CLB, managers can define rules for delivering content based on user profiles. Profile information can include considerations such as geographic region, traffic volume, network and system availability, and performance. Conditions related to each consideration are defined at the DNS level and applied in real-time to provide unprecedented flexibility in traffic management.

Visual Dashboard

CDNetworks’ Cloud DNS+ platform can display information about DNS requests over the past three months based on several criteria, such as record type, end-user location, and CLB domains. This granularity provides unprecedented visibility into customer traffic.

CDNetworks’ Cloud DNS+ platform includes a log delivery service that allows you to download the DNS log via HTTP so you can perform custom analysis based on your requirements and expectations.

Implementing CDNS+ is as simple as three easy steps: organize domains into managed zone files, publish the zone files, and change delegation through the domain name registrar. After the DNS zone is offloaded to CDNS+, our secure, reliable, scalable, and global infrastructure will ensure consistent availability of your website along with speedy response times to global users regardless of their location.
