Optimize Core Services at the Edge
IT departments often struggle to keep pace with business growth. Every time a new branch or remote location opens, network management gets more complicated and costly, with more networks, more servers to update and more risk that a configuration error will lead to a core service outage.
BlueCat Networks delivers IPAM, DNS and DHCP solutions that optimize core network services at the edge by combining efficient centralized management with resilient local delivery of DNS and DHCP core services. Our unique solution offers the best of both worlds by allowing you to host highly available core services where they are critical – at the branch – without sacrificing the advantages of centralized management. The result is an optimal network infrastructure that can sustain growth, while providing more reliable local services and more efficient use of IT resources.

- Grow your business and branch office footprint without increasing IT staffing levels
- 99.999% availability without the high cost of MPLS connectivity to HQ
- Increase efficiency with centralized network management and governance
