SKYE Resolution is a hosted caching DNS service offering that seamlessly extends the capacity and resilience of your in-network caching DNS infrastructure.

Either way, you get the peace-of-mind of Nominum’s Vantio technology and the confidence of a world-class network.

How it works?

SKYE Resolution is built on a highly distributed and resilient architecture of Vantio Intelligent DNS software systems deployed on a network backbone consisting of multiple data centers that span the globe. SKYE Resolution is capable of supporting DNS traffic equal to several large networks, ensuring the highest speed, lowest latency, reliability, and security of your traffic. Whether you’re looking to augment your own DNS infrastructure, replace it, improve the end user experience through added intelligence, or simply providing a back up system in the event of failure or attack, SKYE Resolution addresses these needs squarely and uniquely.

SKYE Resolution, like all SKYE services, is more than just the best DNS software and service infrastructure. The SKYE Operations teams consists of leading industry experts who have hands on experience architecting and managing some of the most complex Service Provider, Enterprise, and Government networks around the globe.
