dnswiz
Authoritative DNS + GSLB, hosted

DNS that picks the right answer.

Failover, weighted, geo, and latency routing — all four, all at the same plan. Real-time propagation, a clean API, and an admin UI built for engineers.

The differences worth caring about

Most providers serve auth DNS. The differentiators are how the answers get picked, how fast changes propagate, and how nice the day-to-day is.

FAILOVER
Primary → backup

Health-check your endpoints. If the primary stops responding, the engine serves the backup automatically.

WEIGHTED
Split traffic by weight

70/30 between two A records, or 50/30/20 across three. Bias new versions, run canaries, do active-active.

GEO
Route by continent

EU users hit your EU stack, NA users hit your NA stack. ECS (EDNS Client Subnet) honored when present.

LATENCY
Route by measured RTT

Each PoP returns the target with the lowest probe latency from its own perspective. Closer is better.

Real-time propagation

No "wait 24 hours for DNS to propagate." Changes hit every engine within milliseconds via NATS — TTL still gates downstream resolver caches, of course.

Test from the UI

Click "Test query" on any record — dnswiz fires a real DNS query against your engine and shows the answer, RTT, and which GSLB target won and why.

Webhook on flap

Endpoint goes down at 3am? dnswiz posts a signed JSON payload to your Slack / PagerDuty / custom URL. You know before your customers do.

Simple pricing

All plans include all four GSLB types. The only thing plans gate is volume.
