Enterprise
Enterprise networks must deliver always-on connectivity while supporting an increasingly demanding and dynamic network environment. Infrastructure complexity and increased demands are driven by:
- The absolute need for always-on networks with uptime nearing 100%
-
Business risk management and disaster recovery strategies to support business continuity
-
Convergence and “on demand” real-time applications such as VoIP and teleconferencing that impose stringent call setup and uptime requirements
-
New threats and attacks appearing daily that are increasingly insidious and difficult to detect
-
More IP-enabled devices, more real-time applications, and more traffic compounded with data center consolidation that increases reliance on fewer network elements
Although DNS and DHCP are at the heart of IP connectivity and access, IT has relied on open source software coupled with workarounds and quick fixes to cope with massive changes in their networks. Although this may have been adequate in the past, continued network growth and change will result in degraded performance, security and availability. As a result there is increasing recognition that DNS and DHCP services need to be upgraded to ensure ongoing stability and continuity of business operations.
Nominum is the only company with purpose-built, commercial-grade, DNS and DHCP servers optimized for large, always-on enterprises. With built-in security Nominum DNS and DHCP are resilient to brutal changes in network traffic conditions triggered by DoS attacks or traffic spikes.
Designed from the ground up for reliability, security, high availability, and self management, Nominum DNS and DHCP share no code or architecture with open source. The software can be installed on existing servers and does not require any changes to network or hardware configurations.
