by Akamai Technologies
Extend your DNS to the Edge to improve availability, performance and resiliency against DDoS attacks
Edge DNS is a cloud-based authoritative DNS solution that provides 24/7 DNS availability, improves DNS responsiveness and has the resilience to defend against the largest DDoS attacks. Built on a globally distributed Anycast network, it can be implemented as a primary or secondary DNS service, replacing or augmenting existing DNS infrastructure as needed.
Edge DNS features the following capabilities:
• High Availability — Edge DNS leverages the Akamai Intelligent Edge Platform™, with thousands of DNS servers in hundreds of points of presence worldwide, to provide a high level of DNS service availability.
• Fast Response — Edge DNS directs users to the highest performing DNS server based on network conditions to improve DNS responsiveness, which leads to better performance for your websites and cloud applications.
• Defense Against DDoS Attacks — Edge DNS protects against DDoS attacks that target DNS resources as a tactic intended to ultimately disrupt or prevent access to websites and application servers.
Edge DNS offers a number of business benefits, including:
• Guaranteed 24/7 availability as a result of the scale of Akamai’s globally distributed Intelligent Edge Platform
• Faster, more reliable resolution with zone apex mapping and thousands of servers deployed worldwide
• Staunch defense against DNS DDoS attacks with the capacity to absorb them while continuing to maintain user access to websites and applications
