Purpose-built DNS, DHCP and IPAM solutions are crucial for 100 percent uptime

Microsoft Active Directory (AD) is a popular DNS solution because it is included in Microsoft tools and capabilities. The price is right, and it works fine for midsize enterprises.

But today, things have changed. Organizations are adopting a distributed model. A modern purpose-built solution is necessary to grow and protect your business.

Key benefits

Infoblox solves common challenges that customers face with Microsoft AD, including:

Large-scale remote site visibility

Offering DDI at all remote sites increases visibility and improves cloud access. However, managing them at scale using Microsoft is cumbersome. Infoblox solutions offer scalable automation for remote sites.

DNS security

Foundational services such as DNS are vulnerable to DDoS attacks. A hardened solution for DDI is important for business continuity. Additionally, comprehensive security at all locations can be expensive. Adding DNS-layer security is a cost-effective alternative to prevent employees from accessing malicious sites.

Visibility into non-Microsoft devices such as switches and routers

Microsoft AD does a poor job in gathering visibility into network devices such as routers and switches. DDI solutions from Infoblox plug that gap and extend visibility, automation and security to all remote devices.

Constant patches, upgrades and vulnerability management

Managing upgrades and patches at remote locations explicitly for DNS and DHCP can require many hours of manual labor. Infoblox solutions largely automate and optimize lifecycle management of DDI.

“After one year of operations, with automation being used to assign IP addresses and register DNS names, the time savings for building 1,500 servers was 1,893 process days. The cost savings were $519,792. Add the potential to gain business agility that can result in literally millions more in revenue and the Infoblox solution has more than paid for itself.”
