Akamai Edge DNS vs. F5 Distributed Cloud DNS

Well suited when you have a high-turnover staffing model or can't get everyone trained on security best practices. Also well suited as a starting place for getting a zero-trust network up and running. A tool like Fast DNS gives you a web based portal to see traffic analysis, too, which for us was very important.

Probably less appropriate for smaller, very small IT departments, but more suited like when you're doing migrations to the cloud. If it is going to be doing setups for DNS within the cloud, this will let you help you set it up so there's no loss of communication between the two.

• I think probably the UI, it's very easily you could scan through and select what you're going to do, and it's kind of similar of the functionality when you compare it to say the Oracle Cloud. So you can go side by side with the windows and then just go through these level when you're going to sell like a new DNS or a new opening on that.

• Probably more like AI suggested customizations, like when you do something and then have something like in the background of the AI. When you start doing something, it'll show you what you previously have done and then you could select, you wouldn't have to go through the whole steps over again. It'll say this is what you've done before, do you want to do a copy? And then just modify a couple of things so you don't have to go through the whole process.

Akamai wins hands down because of their distributed model (their worldwide CDN which is top notch). We've trusted them for other hosting and media distribution and it was a natural to use them for DNS. Feature wise, they are better, for our use cases, then either Google Cloud or Azure

• Fast DNS is core to our protection model, so while is an IT budget line item, is used to protect the entire org.

• I guess positive because we know when we're going to open up, say a DNS or anything, or we're going to have to set something up. We can do it quick and fast instead of having to wait longer for the different steps of how we used to do it before.
