Service Provider Solutions

Nominum has made its name by creating the best technology and deploying it in the most demanding networks around the world—service provider networks. Today, there is zero technical risk with Nominum, and our solutions are proven at over 150 of the world’s largest service providers.

Nominum’s integrated solutions provide critical network-level support for broadband infrastructures and offer a unique platform for service providers to deliver innovative new services to their customers. With Nominum, DNS is more than just a way to keep the Internet up and running (which, in fact, it does very well)—it’s a way to improve it.

Every Service Provider Needs the Best DNS

Everyone takes credit for the Internet. But, let’s face it, the service provider provides the Internet to everyone. And without DNS, there is no Internet. So it should be no surprise that the choice of DNS solutions is one of the most critical network service decisions a service provider has to make. DNS directly impacts the speed, reliability and security of broadband Internet access for your subscribers. A slow DNS server will lead to a poor end-user experience and-worse-a DNS failure will cause the Internet to go “down” for all users. Equally important, service providers have recognized the DNS as a proven platform for delivering value-added services and gaining competitive advantage. In the early days, service providers had only one option-open-source DNS software. Today, service providers have a choice, and the consequences of getting DNS wrong are greater than ever. Selecting the wrong DNS solution leads to a “parade of horribles” that, on the external facing side, includes everything from service outages to service-quality degradation leading to refunds and penalty payments, costly help desk calls, subscriber turnover and brand damage. In addition, on the internal operations side, selecting the wrong DNS solution can lead to higher risk of attack at the network or server level, unnecessary investments in hardware and lack of readiness for network upgrades.
So, why not just get it right the first time? Seems obvious.

Solutions for Service Providers

Nominum is the only solution that delivers on the promise of a smarter, faster, more reliable and useful Internet. The majority of service providers have already selected Nominum’s Intelligent DNS systems for in-network deployments.
Nominum SKYE™ hosted network services offer service providers virtual network extension and disaster-recovery services to speed up Internet service, reduce operational cost and eliminate service disruption from DoS and DDoS attacks or data-center outages. Nominum’s consumer applications provide service providers a way to expand their Internet service offerings to include subscriber-facing, revenue-generating services. Finally, Nominum’s Network Protection Service frees the network from having to support bot-generated traffic. This not only reduces the need to invest in unnecessary network equipment, it also improves the overall reputation of your network by keeping it off of blacklists for spam originators and other malware.

Keep in mind that all of Nominum’s solutions are software based, which means they can be deployed on infrastructures and architectures already in place at the service provider.
