Company extends core DNS Cluster functionality by integrating with two of its major Partner NOCs, SoftLayer and UK2Group.
cPanel, a hosting automation software provider, recently announced that it has begun extending its core DNS (Domain Name System) Cluster functionality by integrating with two of its major Partner NOCs, SoftLayer and UK2Group (under the brand VPS.NET).
The company mentions that on the Internet, the DNS system translates IP addresses into domain names (like SoftLayer.com, cPanel.net, or VPS.NET). But the process of turning web servers into centralized DNS servers can challenge many first-time server owners. Both SoftLayer and VPS.NET offer hosted DNS solutions that are geographically diverse, scalable, secure, and free of charge to their clients. The open architecture of the extended DNS Cluster functionality provides hosted DNS providers with a streamlined process of handling integrations with cPanel & WHM. Future integrators will be able to use SoftLayer and VPS.NET as models to learn methods for offloading DNS traffic and services from their local servers to any hosted DNS provider.
It avers that cPanel & WHM 11.30 includes new functionality and integration efforts that allows server owners easily use the SoftLayer and VPS.NET hosted DNS systems, right from within the WHM interface. The newly extended DNS Cluster system allows server owners the ability to enable DNS, obtain a secure API key, and use SoftLayer and VPS.NET hosted DNS services in minutes.
