Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Dyn Managed DNS
We use Dyn to distribute traffic across multiple data-centers and to failover automatically between them.
- Traffic director works well when shifting traffic to different Data-centers according to end user source IP.
- Active failover provides an easy way to failover between dc when specific health check fails.
- DNS records updates are published fast.
- API - working with DSF ID is not fun.
- Python SDK is not complete, and updating an existing record should be done with less code.
- When we started using AutoScale Groups in AWS, we utilized Dyn API so that each new launched instances created it's own ID and remove it when it terminates.
- ActiveFailover allows us to quickly migrate all users to DR site in case it's down very fast. Speed is important and in this case Dyn does the job pretty well.
