Hi all, anyone have suggestions for very stable/reliable managed DNS? Neustar/UltraDNS is an obvious option to look at, just curious about alternatives. Cost effective would be nice, but stable under attack is better.
Not sure about attacks, or what exactly "managed DNS" is, but dns.he.net. is a very nice service, with many anycast servers in many of their POPs. The ns1.he.net. is an IPv4 unicast in Fremont, but ns{2,3,4,5}.he.net. are all anycast on both IPv4 and IPv6, usually to different locations (HKG, FMT, SJC, PAO, LAX, NYC, LON, FRA, AMS are just some of the locations I've seen), depending on where you're at. Linode also lets you use their DNS infrastructure without any restrictions as long as you're a Linode customer (they have 5 independent unicast IPv4/IPv6 servers, 4 in US, 1 in UK). C.
