Anycast routing
Nearest PoP wins
DNS queries are routed to the geographically closest point of presence – for minimal latency and resilience when individual sites fail.
Anycast DNS
Made in Germany
Multi-region DNS with anycast routing – ayedo operates zones, routing, and failover for you. Faster go-live instead of months building DNS infrastructure, predictable per-zone costs, developers without day-2 DNS ops.
