Web Hosting Canada is proud to announce immediate the launch of our new Anycast DNS service. Anycast DNS uses a new technology which will significantly increase the performance, security, and reliability of your DNS service and represents a crucial step forward in building a stronger and more resilient Canadian Internet infrastructure. Built by CIRA, the same folks who run the .CA domain space, Anycast DNS is the most powerful DNS solution available to Canadians today.

Why choose Anycast DNS?

Anycast DNS is fast. Unlike traditional DNS, Anycast DNS technology automatically routes DNS queries from your website’s visitors to the closest geographical server, significantly improving performance.
Anycast DNS is secure. In the event of Denial of Service attacks on the DNS, you’re protected because queries are soaked up by the closest server leaving the rest free to respond.
Anycast DNS is reliable. With the most redundant nodes across Canada and multiple nodes across the rest of the world, Anycast DNS confidently guarantees and provides 100% uptime.
Anycast DNS is simple to use. It’s already included with Web Hosting Canada’s professional web hosting products, or can be activated during your domain purchase in just a few clicks.
Your website deserves a DNS that is professionally managed and uses state-of-the art servers and networking. Another reason to choose Web Hosting Canada’s Anycast DNS for your business.

What is Anycast DNS?

DNS (Domain Name System) is a technology that powers the backbone of the Internet, allowing the mapping of domain names to the Internet address (called IP address) of the servers that hold the data of your website and email. Before someone can reach your website, they need to communicate with the DNS servers to obtain the actual location of your website’s data. Traditional DNS servers are physically located in fixed locations around the world that can be thousands of kilometers from your website visitors. This causes an additional delay before you or your clients can reach your website and view its content. (Video: How DNS works).

With Anycast DNS technology, your website’s DNS information is copied to dozens of locations around the world (instead of just one), and your visitors automatically fetch the information from the location that’s closest to them, considerably accelerating you website’s initial load time.

Web Hosting Canada’s Anycast DNS system has been built from the ground up in collaboration with CIRA, the .CA registry, with Canadians in mind. It includes 10 points of presence in Canada alone, to ensure the fastest possible domain resolution times for you and your clients. There are also points of presence in Europe, Asia, and the United States, thus ensuring near-instant DNS resolution to your domain worldwide. It is one of the most robust DNS systems available to Canadians today.

Features & Benefits

Anycast DNS provides several crucial benefits

Improved performance

Automatically route customers to the closest nameserver. With Anycast nameservers located close to Canadian population hubs and in international Internet hubs, you reduce latency and improve performance.

High reliability

Anycast eliminates the single point of failure of unicast nameservers with two clouds of Anycast servers. With Anycast, DNS queries are automatically routed around server failures or network outages.

DDOS Mitigation

Anycast uses high-capacity international nodes with high bandwidth transit and peering at Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) to absorb DDoS attacks and mitigate the impact on your website.
