What is Managed DNS?

Managed DNS is a service delivered by a DNS hosting provider that offers you the opportunity to use their advanced DNS infrastructure. In addition, it provides an established system of name servers that you can take advantage of. That way, you are able to host and manage all your DNS data (DNS records) and make the domain available online. By trusting a professional DNS infrastructure, you will notice a massive improvement in your availability and performance.
Additionally you can take advantage of an easy-to-use control panel where you can manage your DNS traffic, create DNS zones, add, modify or remove DNS records, or add additional locations for even better speed and redundancy.

ClouDNS is a Managed DNS provider since 2010. Our mission is to provide the best DNS services on the planet. We are constantly upgrading and expanding our network to exceed industry standards and bring our customers the highest ROI.
