Vidrio keeps DNS feet on the ground
ApplianSys is pleased to announce that Vidrio Financial, an investment management company in New York, has chosen a DNSBOX solution to ensure reliable DNS for its new cloud-based environment.
As part of a network overhaul for Vidrio’s NYC headquarters, Systems Administrator Mauro Lana elected to reduce the operational costs of the company’s physical infrastructure by moving to cloud-based servers.
Despite migrating most services and infrastructure to the cloud, Mauro knew that cloud-based DNS risked network latency – leading to poor web browsing experience. So he decided to keep just the DNS service running on a physical server.
However, with Microsoft authentication and record-hosting moving to the Cloud, Mauro sought to replace the existing Windows solution. There was no need to keep a feature-bloated service that was not designed for just fast, reliable DNS.
He searched online for a dedicated DNS solution and was pleased to find DNSBOX200’s recursive DNS option offered an affordable, fit for purpose alternative.
DNSBOX Product Manager, Magdalena Jovanovic says: “DNSBOX is a great fit for Vidrio Financial. DNSBOX200’s modular design allows it to run authoritative and recursive (cache) DNS as separate services on the same physical server. So within the cost of a single physical server, Vidrio can securely host DNS for their internal Active Directory zone, as well as serving recursive DNS for everything else.”
