Durable DNS Driver Documentation¶
DurableDNS provides DNS hosting solutions for customers of all sizes. Works with all hosting arrangements - shared web hosting, virtual private servers, dedicated servers, and servers hosted on dynamic IP addresses. The servers are located in data centers located in different areas of North America. This geographic separation ensures that your DNS records are never off-line due to network problems, natural disasters, data center failures, or supplier failures.
