We have released a new whitepaper you might be interested in:
Disaster Preparedness for Core Network Services
Resiliency and Control for Disaster Recovery Planning and Business Continuity
It's written by Cricket Liu, our VP of Architecture
Abstract
Core network services, which include name resolution (DNS), IP address assignment
(DHCP) and management (IPAM), are used by just about every networked application,
which these days includes pretty much every non-trivial application. This is not surprising:
In the case of DNS alone, the richness and flexibility of modern networks and applications
would simply not be possible if applications couldn’t refer to devices and resources by
symbolic names rather than IP addresses.
In this white paper, we’ll take a look at how failures can unexpectedly disrupt core network
services, such as name resolution and IP address assignment, and the applications
that depend on them, despite employing traditional approaches to providing redundant
configurations. Then we’ll examine how we can build our service infrastructure to be as
resilient as possible, to minimize the effects of failures and ensure business continuity.
