DYN DNS Alternative

Migrate nameservers with ease

DYN DNS clients will need to migrate to another authoritative DNS provider. Users have been notified that they will need to migrate nameservers before Oracle retires DYN services. We make switching providers a seamless process, and you can achieve 100% uptime, with the lowest latency possible thanks to our iron-clad infrastructure.

Dyn - The Managed DNS service is scheduled to be retired on May 31, 2023

Dyn DNS Retiring Services

Dyn will be retiring its services and you will need to migrate to a different managed provider. We are here to help with tutorials and expert support staff to make the process easy!

Need DNS Redundancy?

DNS Made Easy supports traditional Secondary DNS. For ultimate redundancy, our services pair with your current provider. Your business will also benefit from DNS Made Easy’s industry-leading speeds regardless of whether we are your primary or secondary provider, as resolvers tend to prefer the faster authoritative nameservers. 

Failover Services vs Active Failover

DNS Made Easy DNS Made Easy services run on our own extensive, bare metal server infrastructure and features our proprietary Peregrine Instant DNS updates (PIDU) technology. PIDU pushes changes to our thousands of authoritative nameservers in less than a second, making our Failover service one of the fastest in the world.

DYN: Active Failover

Oracle Dyn’s Failover service allows you to configure global health checks that monitor your primary endpoint. If your primary resource is down, traffic will automatically be routed to your backup IP/host. You can also choose to receive notifications for when your primary endpoint goes down and when it becomes available again.

DNS Made Easy: Failover

DNS Made Easy’s Failover solution operates similarly to Dyn’s Active Failover. One additional step we take is to ensure your alternative resources are healthy and available before redirecting traffic, which prevents unnecessary downtime.

Global Traffic Steering vs Traffic Director

Dyn: Traffic Director

Dyn’s Traffic Director lets you configure your DNS based on geographical rules for enhanced routing decisions. Configurations can be based on region, country, state, or province.

DNS Made Easy: Global Traffic Director (GTD)

Similar to Dyn’s Traffic Director service, DNS Made Easy’s Global Traffic Director lets users create region-specific DNS records that can serve content based on user location. Records can be configured for six regions around the world. GTD greatly improves performance, resolution accuracy, and speeds.

DDoS Attack Prevention with Anomaly Detection

Dyn Oracle: DDoS Protection
Oracle Dyn’s DDoS Protection service automatically monitors your domain(s) for common DDoS volumetric attacks, as well as layer 3 and 4 attacks like SYN, UDP, and ICMP floods.

DNS Made Easy: Real-time Traffic Anomaly Detection (RTTAD)
We offer a real-time monitoring service that uses machine learning to analyze and predict web traffic. With Real-time Traffic Anomaly Detection (RTTAD), you can view your DNS traffic in real time, and are instantly notified if any suspicious activity is detected. With RTTAD enabled, you can make proactive decisions rather than reactive ones and stop an attack before it can bring your domain offline. Our network is also engineered to protect against TCP state exhaustion attacks, reflection/amplification attacks, and application attacks. Best used for identifying unusual activity and stopping DDoS attacks.
