Utilising the DNS, MonitoNIC dynamically redirects traffic to backup sites when an active site becomes unavailable, ensuring minimal downtime and seamless user experiences.
True business continuity demands high availability (HA) as well as scalability. Traditional methods including active-active site configurations, redundant hardware and active-passive failover all have significant drawbacks
Lacks monitoring capabilities
Typically tied to hardware within a single data center, limiting geographic resilience.
Introduce a single point of failure.
Issues with underlying IPs can prevent effective rerouting.
L4 switches and virtual IPs are suitable for scaling within a single location, but fall short in delivering HA across multiple locations or countries.
MonitoNIC operates by assigning a low TTL value to DNS records pointing to your service. If the active site experiences downtime, the DNS entry is immediately updated to redirect traffic to a predefined passive site.
MonitoNIC has significantly improved our DNS reliability and performance. The integration was seamless, and the DNSSEC protection gives us peace of mind knowing that our customers can trust our services.
