ADONIS

The Adonis family of appliances delivers end-to-end, fast, intelligent, cross-platform, secure DNS and DHCP solutions that are specifically designed to combine ease-of-use and low maintenance with scalability.

 

Adonis is a purpose-built, hardened and optimized network infrastructure appliance with a built-in firewall to thwart security breaches. Adonis uses the industry-standard BIND 9 and integrates additional security measures to stop zero-day exploits such as cache poisoning and other threats. Adonis’s powerful user interface is easy-to-use and extremely powerful. Users familiar with UNIX, Windows, or Linux environments can easily build complex DNS/DHCP configurations and error-check them for logical and syntactical errors prior to deployment; this adds up to increased network reliability, reduces support costs and better ROI. Competing products such as Windows-based DNS/DHCP solutions are inherently insecure due to their underlying operating system and the fact that they use an older version of BIND that is open to zero-day exploits like cache poisoning. Other appliance-based offerings lack Adonis’ ease-of-use advanced management features and do not give administrators the ability to error-check IP allocation and name server configurations prior to deployment. Adonis provides the lowest TCO in its class and offers a positive ROI within the first three months of deployment.

With Adonis’s advanced clustering and distributed architecture, it is designed to meet the requirements of both small organizations and the most demanding enterprises needing to deploy hundreds of DNS/DHCP appliances. Adonis is used by numerous government, military, educational institutions and global Fortune 500 organizations in over 50 countries.

BlueCat Networks counts among its customers some of the largest and most recognized organizations in a variety of industries such as Financial Services, Telecommunications, Education, Manufacturing, Healthcare, and Utilities.

With products ranging from the Adonis 250 DNS Caching Appliance, up to the Adonis 1000 DNS/DHCP Appliance, BlueCat Networks provides comprehensive, end-to-end, secure and affordable DNS and DHCP solutions.
