Advantages of PowerDNS

Whilst most Authoritative DNS software is good with small numbers of records and thousands of queries per second, only PowerDNS provides flexibility and high performance over very large numbers of zones.

PowerDNS software is responsible for over 30% of all European domain names and over 90% DNSSEC-enabled domains.
