Fast, Secure, and Resilient DNS
DNS is a mission-critical component for any online business. Yet this component is often overlooked and forgotten, until something breaks.
Cloudflare Managed DNS is an enterprise-grade authoritative DNS service that offers the fastest response time, unparalleled redundancy, and advanced security with built-in DDoS mitigation and DNSSEC.
Our global Anycast network allows DNS resolution at the network edge in each of our data centers across 200+ cities, resulting in unparalleled redundancy and 100% uptime.
Cloudflare offers built-in DDoS protection and one-click DNSSEC to ensure your applications are always safeguarded from DNS attacks.
Our authoritative DNS is the fastest in the world, offering DNS lookup speed of 11ms on average and worldwide DNS propagation in less than 5 seconds.
Relieve your organization from the costs and stress of DDoS attacks against your DNS. With Cloudflare Managed DNS, you get unlimited and unmetered mitigation against DNS-based DDoS attacks. Our network capacity is 15x bigger than the largest DDoS attack ever recorded.
Cloudflare Managed DNS comes with built-in DNSSEC to protect your users from on-path attacks that can spoof or hijack your DNS records. DNSSEC adds an additional layer of security at every level in the DNS lookup process. The best part — you can easily deploy DNSSEC at the click of a single button.
We make DNS easy. All your domains can be managed through our user-friendly interface or via an API, regardless of where your Internet properties are hosted. Terraform integration further automates DNS management and configuration.
You get 24/7 phone and email support, and dedicated solutions and success engineers — helping onboard and configure DNS records with zero downtime.
With Cloudflare Load Balancing, you can reduce latency and improve application availability by steering traffic away from unhealthy origins and dynamically distributing it to the most available and responsive server pools. Our load balancing solution leverages Cloudflare’s global Anycast network and supports all protocols from HTTP(S) to TCP and UDP.
