Improve your application performance
With 24 Anycast DNS PoPs located across 6 continents, Section ensures your application will be available to your customers no matter where they are. By hosting your DNS with Section, you eliminate creating redirects so visitors are pointed directly to your application and therefore see faster page load times.
Manage DNS records easily
Within our user-friendly interface, you can add, edit, and remove multiple record types as the needs of your business change. Supported record types include A, CNAME, MX, TXT, and ALIAS/ANAME. Easily view your existing records from directly within the platform without having to log in to another system.
Get set up quickly
Avoid spending time creating and managing CNAME records at a separate DNS hosting provider by hosting directly with Section. Simply update your nameservers at your domain registrar and manage records in the Edge Compute Platform.
Improve your website security
Using Section-hosted DNS allows us to easily validate your application and provide an SSL/TLS certificate to encrypt your application data over HTTPS. No need to purchase your own certificate or manually provide the key information to ensure your site is secure.
Bring everything to your Edge Compute Platform.
Section’s Anycast DNS Hosting is a core feature provided to every user to improve the performance and security of your application. Using DNS hosting within the Edge Compute Platform, you can easily update DNS records and achieve faster application performance by eliminating the need for redirects.
In addition, by giving you the ability to test before deployment and immediately identify issues via log management and real-time metrics, applications using Section cache more content, scale faster, and block more threats than with any other solution.
