Using Azure DNS, you can easily and quickly deploy and manage your domain DNS. It's been an excellent introduction to our web services requirements. It offers all services on a single platform and integrates with other applications. It not only offers DNS services for websites but also for your applications.

Constellix Screenshots

Screenshot of Our query reporting breaks down your usage by day for each of your domains and compares GeoDNS queries to your standard query usage.Screenshot of See which records are being queried the most in real-time! You can also filter historical query data by record type, name, location, or IP version. This tool is excellent for identifying traffic anomalies, like DDoS attacks.Screenshot of We offer a full suite of network monitoring services that we call Sonar. Sonar can be used as a standalone service or in tandem with our DNS services; like our Traffic Steering solution, which combines Real-User Monitoring data with synthetic monitoring metrics to inform traffic steering decisions in real-time.Screenshot of Version Control with Rollback: Compare and revert the commit history of your domain. Each version contains an account of all record changes and gives you the ability to create historical domain recovery. If you make a mistake you are able to roll back to the previous. You can keep notes that are assigned to each committed change to keep track of your work overtime and compare up to two different commit versions side-by-side.
