Request: Failover DNS account

[peterw]

I want a cheap account to use dns servers that support fail-over. Need it for 3 domains.

Don't know which provider I should trust.

 

[blergh]

dns4pro without a doubt.

 

[peterw]

Anyone knows dnsmadeeasy.com?

Very good company in dnsmadeeasy.  Very reliable, works well, admin at last check was easy to use.  Low end price is like $29/year which can't be beat.  Anycast.

@blergh,  who is behind this project?  I keep bumping into it, but the details are really lacking for paid accounts and such.

I also recommend Rage4.

I am looking for more options though.  Too many eggs in too few baskets.

Rage4 has free DNS look ups for the first 250k.

Second that.

Both are good and offer that "failover" feature.

@Amfy is behind it. Prometeus also co-owns it now.

Would like to see a feature list of what your DNS supports.

 

[VPSCorey]

Supports most everything you want from a hosted DNS solution minus RDNS and XFER's so you cant tie a dns server into it.

Though I wonder how vps.net pulls this off with cPanel.

 

[VPSCorey]

Oh and there's no limits in lookups etc.. just run your domain business as usually.

Failover DNS?

 

[VPSCorey]

What you're looking for is service monitoring with the ability to update your DNS records on the fly.  We dont have that, but you could write a script to use our API to make the updates.

Than I can use the Dynamic DNS support of HE.NET.

How do I now if 250k are enough?

I also recommend Rage4.

Do you use all three?

 

[wlanboy]

Maybe it is possible to do thins on your own.

Will think about a lowend solution.
