Sustainable Global Cloud through DNS, Inc

Cloud computing offers the promise of on-demand capacity delivered around the world. Until now, companies have had an extremely difficult time taking advantage of this capability. There has been no simple way to deploy services in different clouds around the world and then direct customers to the closest available server, without investing in expensive hardware. For example, Amazon(R)’s Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) service allows the rapid deployment of servers in several datacenters, but provides no way to load balance requests to these servers, detect and route around failures, or direct customers to the closest server. This gap has significantly impacted the market acceptance of cloud computing and forced companies to pursue traditional infrastructure options.
Dynamic Network Service, Inc. takes aim at this problem with its latest release of the Dynect Platform and the general availability of Dynect Traffic Management, a DNS-based global server load balancer. The new solution gives network and system administrators a DNS-based alternative to costly hardware-based global server load balancing systems. Dynect Traffic Management is the simplest, most effective and reliable way to take global advantage of cloud computing. Using Dyn Inc.’s global anycast DNS network, customers are able to direct their clients to the geographically closest available server. By selectively routing clients to different servers, latency and web page load times are reduced, increasing service availability and heightening the user experience. Server load balancing, monitoring and failover are all incorporated into the Dynect Traffic Management service.
