ZoneCloud is a comprehensive DNS clustering solution designed to streamline DNS management across diverse hosting environments. It enables hosting providers and data centers to unify various web hosting panels—such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, Virtualmin, and InterWorx—into a centralized DNS cluster, regardless of the underlying operating system, including CloudLinux, CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu, and FreeBSD.
Key Components of ZoneCloud:
- ZoneCloud Controller: Acts as the central hub, receiving DNS records from multiple servers and distributing them to designated DNS servers.
- ZoneCloud Agent: Installed on web servers, it transmits DNS zone data to the Controller, supporting both panel-based and standalone servers.
- ZoneCloud Node: Deployed on DNS servers, it serves the DNS zones as directed by the Controller.
Notable Features:
- Panel and OS Independence: Cluster any combination of web hosting panels and operating systems seamlessly.
- Multiple Clusters: Manage several clusters using a single Controller for enhanced efficiency.
- Effortless Domain Transfers: Exclude domains from specific servers to facilitate smooth migrations without downtime.
- Duplicate Domain Protection: Prevent conflicts by identifying and managing duplicate zones.
- Security Focused: Ensure secure communications with TLS encryption, IP, and token authentication.
- Scalability: Support an unlimited number of Agents and Nodes, allowing for flexible scaling.
- User-Friendly Setup: Simplify deployment with RPM and DEB packages and straightforward configuration files.
