Client spotlight
Dropbox partnered with IBM to implement a more sophisticated approach to DNS traffic management. The company chose IBM® NS1 Connect® for its scalable, authoritative DNS service. The goal was to replace Dropbox’s geolocation-based system with the real-time monitoring and latency-based traffic steering capabilities of IBM NS1 Connect.
The solution enabled Dropbox to create a custom DNS map that prioritized actual network performance over physical distance.
