DNS hyperscales and secures your infrastructure during high query volumes and DDoS attacks, making sure apps are highly available—even between multiple instances and across hybrid environments.
BIG-IP DNS improves the performance and availability of your global applications by sending users to the closest or best-performing physical, virtual, or cloud environment. It also hyperscales and secures your DNS infrastructure from DDoS attacks.
BIG-IP DNS can hyperscale up to 100 million responses per second (RPS) to manage rapid increases in DNS queries. With a set of features that includes multicore scalability, DNS Express, and IP Anycast integration, BIG-IP DNS handles millions of DNS queries, protects your business from DDoS attacks, and ensures top application performance for users.
BIG-IP DNS routes distributed app traffic to keep pace with changing network and user volumes that can overwhelm data centers during peak traffic times. BIG-IP DNS can also be configured as a full proxy for global load balancing applications and DNS across architectures, as well as across the globe.
BIG-IP DNS services integrate with DNS zone management solutions, increase DNS performance at the network edge, and mask the DNS back-end infrastructure. That translates into higher productivity, server consolidation, faster responses, and protected DNS management.
BIG-IP DNS deploys DNS over HTTPS (DoH) using SSL to prevent DNS Spoofing and data manipulation. This last mile protection with DNS message encapsulation provides full privacy and integrity for service providers and enterprises.
F5 provides a hyper-scale and secure DNS solution for service providers that provides faster web browsing and reduced latency. This improves subscriber’s user experience and leads to reduced churn and increased revenues. Visibility into DNS and applications means that their health, optimization and protection can be maximized.
Manages query responses with multicore scalability, handling spikes in DNS query volumes.
Validates query requests, mitigates malicious communications, absorbs DDoS attacks, encrypts end to end with SSL, and more.
Protects LDNS servers from cache poisoning and man-in-the-middle attacks with real-time DNSSEC.
Supports application requirements across data center and cloud environments while keeping apps available.
Gives you the flexibility to shift traffic to a backup data center and fail over an entire site, or just control the affected apps.
Routes clients to the nearest data center with geolocation-based load balancing for the best user experience.
F5 application services work the same way in the public and private cloud as they do in the data center.
BIG-IP VEs have the same features as those that run on F5 hardware—and you can deploy them on any hypervisor or select cloud provider.
Both the F5 family of devices and the VIPRION chassis are purpose-built, powerful hardware that BIG-IP software runs on.
