Too often in cloud, virtualized, and SDN deployments, the handoffs and delays with manually provisioning IP addresses and DNS records can add hours, days, or even weeks to the process. The lack of automation also causes inconsistency, outages, and security risks when provisioning and destroying VMs and NSX devices.

Domain Name System (DNS) is one of the fastest growing attack vectors because it’s essential for Internet connectivity. Attackers are taking advantage of DNS as a control point for data exfiltration and malware communication with C&C sites.

In the US, more than half of all Internet traffic will rely on IPv6 in less than a year. Yet, many IT networking professionals are still uncertain how IPv6 will play a critical role in delivering the modern network and data center.

Network Change is still the leading cause of network related incidents. At the same time, demands on network engineering and network operations are increasing in support of closing security vulnerabilities quickly, ensuring configuration security policies are enforced, deploying new services, and supporting changing business needs.

Sensitive data is everywhere, and promises of end-to-end data protection have failed to materialize. Do organizations know where their sensitive data is? And if they do, how are they assessing and protecting that data?

Data is the new currency in the modern digital enterprise and protecting data is a strategic imperative for every organization. Enterprises must protect data whether it resides in a data center, an individual's laptop that is used on premise or off premise and across the global distributed enterprise.

Don't leave your DDI infrastructure to fate! Infoblox Reporting and Analytics provides Actionable Network Intelligence by gathering, analyzing, and presenting data from your DNS, DHCP, and IPAM infrastructure.

In virtualized and cloud deployments, there are often two large gaps that cause issues for network teams. Those gaps are a lack of visibility of virtual assets and manual provisioning for network aspects such as DNS and IP addresses.

A DNS, DHCP, and IP address management solution (DDI) is essential for network availability and functionality. As networking demands increase and expand, it’s important to move beyond zero-dollar products, spreadsheets, and first-generation IP-centric systems to a modern solution for highly available, reliable, and resilient core services that can meet those future demands. But not all DDI solutions are created equal.
