Key benfits for Secondary Premium Anycast DNS
Redundancy
If you only use a primary DNS service, you are exposed to a lot of risks. You might suffer an outage or DDoS attack. If that happens, your online presence will NOT be available until the problem is fixed or the attack is over. That means downtime for websites, apps, online services, mail servers - anything that relies on a DNS query being completed. It makes good business sense to ensure redundancy by having a secondary DNS service.
Global footprint
A secondary DNS service from Excedo will give you a much better global footprint so that user requests from all over the world will be answered using the closest available server. This means that on a day-to-day basis, you will see faster load times, better load balancing and a overall improvement in end-user experience.
High-security zonetransfers
When you have a premium secondary DNS service, you won´t notice any extra administration on your side. All the relevant data held in your primary DNS server is seamlessly copied across to all Excedo Premium Secondary DNS servers. This process (known as zone transfers) happens fully automatically. You get essential redundancy and an improved user experience with no extra work needed from you.
Performance
Excedo commits to providing performance guarantees as part of the service offering. Fast DNS lookups are critical to providing the best website and app performance.
