Neustar – which has been in the DNS industry for over 21 years – has re-architected its DNS nodes worldwide and expanded services in China. As part of the enhancement initiative, the firm has completely revamped the UltraDNS hardware stack, and implemented a modern, best of breed, virtualized architecture, harnessing DevOps style tools like Puppet and Ansible.
Neustar’s global network of 30+ nodes spanning six continents can now handle over 9 trillion queries a day, at a rate of more than 100 million queries per second.
Alongside the new and improved resolution nodes, Neustar has made additional improvements to its UltraDNS provisioning architecture ensuring faster propagation of DNS updates, lower latency, and a reinforced portal interface to drive improved operational efficiencies, thus ensuring at least a 20% lower latency than most of its competitors.
This new generation of UltraDNS includes enhanced DNSSEC capabilities that use the latest elliptic curve cryptography as well as expanded protection for traffic management records.
