AMNIC public services • DNS • Whois • WWW • Database - behind of scene • Other services – e-mail, NTP, cDNS, RIPE Atlas
DNS • Zone file management • DNSSEC • Slaves – diversity, reliability, security • IANA
DNSSEC pros • Authentication of origin • Record's non-existence verification • No MITM and cache poisoning anymore • DANE/TLSA !
DNSSEC cons • Additional maintenance tasks • Increased cost of errors • Target for DDoS - larger responses, more CPU load and RAM usage
Back to other services • Whois - standard and web interfaces • Web interfaces to database updates • E-mail - other way to communicate • NTP stratum 1 server - ntp.amnic.net member of pool.ntp.org • cDNS - an instance of anycast cloud
Hardware, connectivity, etc • Two datacentres • Two upstream NSPs • Two power sources
Datacentres • Server per service - virtualization • Database streaming replication • Internal anycasting • Total logging • Backup to opposite DC
Upstreams • Multihomed, with large capacity • Connected to local exchanges • Native IPv6
Power • Reliable switching between sources • Good UPS systems
Disaster recovery • Migration to alive datacentre • Migration to alive database • Recovery from backup
What to improve • Global anycasting of DNS • Paid escrow service out of country • Power generator system in main DC
