Integral to Domain Management Systems, today’s DNS solutions must solve both the technical and economic challenges, be highly scalable, offer superior performance under high work load [peak] periods, and incorporate much higher resilience and capacity to deal with DNS attacks.
Current ‘state of the art’ solutions enable one DNS system to support 1 Mrps of DNS requests. To reach the traffic requirement of one Billion rps DNS requests, complex architectures based on load balancing and hierarchical organization are set necessitating higher investments in hardware and software.
Product Description [DNS Server Software]
Improving DNS throughput performances while reducing infrastructure investments needed to service current DNS traffic levels or an anticipated increase in traffic is easily achieved with dnRunner from Terascale.
dnRunner offers breakthrough technology offering a dramatic increase in throughput performance at a substantial lower per Mrps cost.
dnRunner delivers 190 Mrps DNS requests on a single systems representing a boost in performance of 190x when compared to current ‘state of the art’ solutions.
dnRunner savings are equally impressive with an average savings of $28,000 per Mrps, or $28million for 1 Brps of increased capacity.
dnRunner is designed as an authoritive/recursive DNS software product based on lockless memory technology capable of processing over 190 million queries per second with an average response latency measured at 12µs.
This DNS solution can run on a standalone commodity system under Windows, or be virtualized on VMware, Microsoft Hyper-V, Cisco, and Riverbed platforms, operate on an appliance or within the cloud.
