I see a big advantage in using Whalebone’s solution compared to a basic DNS resolver. An open-source DNS server may work, but it does not offer any extra benefits for our customers. With Aura Infrastructure, we have a DNS server that is maintained and developed by a professional team, ensuring better functionality and reliability.
