Managed DNS
Take control of the first step of
every visit
Every page load, app request, and CDN delivery starts with DNS. Resolve requests faster, connect delivery more easily, and keep full control as traffic gets more complex.

DNS is more than a place for records
Give every request a faster and cleaner path to the right destination.
The first delay happens before delivery
Give users a faster first step before your CDN, app, or service responds.
Basic records cannot handle every route
Keep traffic moving toward the right region, endpoint, or service as your setup changes.
Endpoint issues shouldn’t
decide the user experience
Reduce the chance that an unhealthy endpoint turns into a visible failure.
Give traffic a better way forward
One fixed path is not always the best one. Route each request where it makes the most sense.
Start faster with Anycast DNS
Use 210+ Anycast DNS servers across the globe to send users to the nearest location before delivery begins.
Send traffic straight to delivery
Remove the extra stop between DNS and CDN, so users reach delivery faster through a cleaner path.
Route traffic with intent
Match each request to the right route for its user, region, endpoint, or use case.
Launch on global-scale DNS
Build on global DNS infrastructure ready for real traffic from day one, with room to grow when demand rises.
Switch DNS on your terms
Move your DNS without losing control, rebuilding blind, or turning a simple switch into a risky cutover.

to everything after it
DNS decides where each request begins, but it should not sit apart from the rest of your delivery stack. Bring DNS, CDN, routing, failover, and automation into one cleaner path, so traffic can move faster and your team can stay in control as the setup grows.

Bring DNS and CDN into one flow- Route users by need, location, or endpoint health
- Automate changes with API and infrastructure-as-code tools
Keep every route under control
Stay fast, visible, resilient, and in control as your DNS setup gets more advanced.
Understand how DNS requests move across your zones with statistics that help your team spot patterns, validate changes, and troubleshoot faster.
Manage DNS through the tools your team already uses, from API workflows to infrastructure-as-code and certificate automation.
Keep domain setup cleaner with modern records and root-domain routing that make delivery easier to manage.
Send users to the right destination based on geography, subnet, ASN, weights, and endpoint conditions.
Reduce user-facing disruption by routing around unhealthy endpoints when conditions change.
Protect domain resolution with DNSSEC support and DNS infrastructure built to stay resilient under attack pressure.
Manage DNS like infrastructure
Keep DNS changes close to the workflows your team already uses. Manage records, certificates, and infrastructure updates through API and configuration-as-code tools instead of manual portal work.
Built for traffic that
doesn’t stand still
Keep DNS ready for users, regions, attacks, and traffic shifts without rebuilding the foundation underneath.
