2. White labeled anycast DNS service
CIRA delivers an anycast secondary service for the Canadian market to hundreds of hosting companies, registrars, governments, universities and corporations. TLDs can bring this capability to their nation by offering a free service to registrars to enhance the value of domains or by creating your own pricing model and offering a for revenue service.

3. Shared anycast for ccTLDs
Many ccTLDs are looking to enhance their local Internet capability by supporting exchange points, standards adoption, and sound Internet governance. We can help you increase the resilience of the local DNS infrastructure. TLDs may elect to operate their own node within the region and contribute it to the global cloud.
- Operate as a local or global node
- Connect directly to local IXP for a more resilient local infrastructure
- Faster response time for your TLD
