It is a data management solution that facilitates in-depth analysis of DNS trends. It provides a secure and confidential environment to analyze DNS data and derive strategic insights. The UltraDNS Private Data Lake offers comprehensive visibility into the DNS ecosystem. This enhances monitoring processes and decision-making capabilities while enabling organizations to harness DNS data's power for informed decision-making that is crucial in contemporary business environments.
UltraDNS Private Data Lake is intended for companies requiring a comprehensive analysis of their DNS query operations to obtain valuable and strategic data insights.
UltraDNS Private Data Lake provides complete data independence, allowing unrestricted access and in-depth analytics. This feature empowers users to extract valuable insights with ease, enabling data-backed decision-making.
It enables comprehensive analysis of traffic patterns, including user behavior and other critical metrics, assisting in informed decision-making and driving business growth.
It allows organizations to retain large volumes of DNS query data for extended periods, which is crucial for compliance with various regulatory requirements
The data lake is designed to be scalable, accommodating increasing data needs without compromising performance and can be customized to meet specific organizational or compliance requirements.
It collects various types of DNS query data, including query types, response codes, and technical DNS data. This data is processed using an "Hourly Script" for storage and analysis. The UltraDNS Private Data Lake data is 6 hours behind real-time. This delay is considered in the context of the vast amount of data being processed and the need for accurate, comprehensive analysis.
Organizations can utilize query services like Amazon Athena, a serverless interactive service, to analyze their DNS data using standard SQL, enabling efficient and comprehensive data analysis.
The UltraDNS Private Data Lake classifies DNS queries by types such as A, AAAA, MX, NS, and others, facilitating targeted analysis and pattern recognition within specific query types.
The policy of making customers responsible for the costs of query execution and data egress in the UltraDNS Private Data Lake is in line with standard cloud service practices. This approach ensures that customers manage and pay for the resources they consume, especially for data querying and transferring data out of the platform. It allows for a scalable and customizable service model where users can control their usage and associated costs more directly.
The UltraDNS Private Data Lake stores data in Parquet format, a columnar storage file format optimized for large-scale query operations. This format allows for efficient storage and speedy retrieval, especially for complex analytical queries. Parquet format also supports data compression and encoding schemes, which reduces the storage space and increases the speed of data processing tasks, making it ideal for handling large volumes of DNS data.
