D-Zone Features

High Reliability

D-Zone eliminates the single point of failure of unicast nameservers with two clouds of Anycast servers. With Anycast, DNS queries are automatically routed around server failures or network outages.

Max Performance

Automatically route customers to the closest nameserver. With D-Zone nameservers located close to Canadian population hubs and in international Internet hubs you reduce latency and improve performance.

DDoS Mitigation

The D-Zone uses high-capacity international nodes with high bandwidth transit and peering at Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) to absorb DDoS attacks and mitigate the impact on your best customers.

Do you administer your Domain Name System (DNS)?

.CA D-Zone Anycast DNS is a secondary service with a strong national focus to help you strengthen your organization's Internet presence locally, and around the world.

The DNS is a key part of the Internet and one that has been part of its trust framework since the beginning. It's also a vulnerable part of the Internet and one that CIRA is helping organizations to strengthen for the following reasons:

  • It's good for business
  • It's good for individuals
  • It's good for data sovereignty and privacy
  • It's good for security and stability
