RSS FeedDNS Failover officially released
Today we are releasing our brand new DNS Failover service after three months of Beta Testing when we have improved the service stability, performance and accuracy to meet our customer standards and requirements.
What is DNS Failover?
The service keeps your websites and services online in the event of a system or network outages. DNS Failover does it by moving the DNS traffic to another working IP address.
Additionally, we are using the DNS Failover service as distributed monitoring with e-mail alerts. The system monitors your checks from multiple nodes around the world. You can set up the DNS Failover service as monitoring to notify you in case of problems without any changes to be applied to your DNS.
You can read more for the new DNS Failover service here: https://www.cloudns.net/dns-failover/
What is the price?
As a compliment to our existing customers, we have added One DNS Failover and Monitoring check for Free for all Premium, DDoS Protected, and GeoDNS plans. Extra checks can be added to the all hosting plans.
Here are the options:
- 3 checks - $2.45/month
- 5 checks - $3.45/month
- 10 checks - $4.95/month
- Over 10 checks - $2.00/month for each 5 extra checks
- More than 50 checks? Talk with our Sales Team at sales@cloudns.net
