Managed Dyn DNS just works....
Dyn Managed DNS is used by the entire managed services division to manage client-related DNS. The platform gives us security and accountability over a critical DNS infrastructure compared to other providers.
- Managed DNS
- Recording keeping and history of changes
- Uptime
- Better integration with their own DynID, currently a two step process to register users.
- Help for advanced products can sometimes be confusing.
We utilize Dyn DNS across all of our consumer-facing interfaces. All DNS management including fallbacks for our web interfaces are going through Dyn.
- Automatic fallback and restoration works great for us to show a maintenance page upon downtime
- Quick deployment and propagation of DNS changes
- Great speed for DNS replies for all of our U.S based audience
- Nothing we can think of at this time.

Routing Your Traffic Globally to Meet Customer Needs
We use Traffic Director to ensure that visitors to our website are routed to the servers that will provide them with the best experience. As we scale out globally we want to ensure that all of our users are able to access our services as quickly an smoothly as possible. In addition, some countries have regulatory requirements that we treat traffic or data from their citizens differently. We can use Traffic Director to ensure that all of those rules are followed. Lastly, when something does go awry with our technical infrastructure, Traffic Director quickly detects this and sends users to the next best (and available) endpoint.
- Responds quickly to changes in the health of your infrastructure
- Very fast and completely transparent to the end user
- Geographical segmentation of traffic can be done down to the specific country/state level
- API allows settings to be changed quickly with remote automation
- Learning your way around the configuration can be difficult at first. It is one of those things where there are so many knobs you can turn that it is overwhelming and takes time to figure out where each setting is that you want to modify.
- Misconfigured & failing health checks can be difficult to debug. The output that is provided to show you why a health check fails can be misleading in some cases or just too vague in others.
- No way to replicate the configuration to another provider. If you want to have a secondary DNS provider for redundancy, there is no way to automate the syncing of Traffic Director configuration. Normal DNS records can be as they are in a standard format, but there is no standard format for what Traffic Director does.
