Whalebone DNS Resolver®
The ultimate answer for telco DNS resolution.
- IPv4/IPv6 Dual Stack or transition mechanisms
- Native IPv6 support
- DNS64
- Cache size is configurable and TTL can be tweaked
- Flexibility to configure the cache hit ratio into desired levels
- Median values in other deployments over 95%
- 1ms response time
- Based on Knot Resolver
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.
