Tata Communications and Internet Systems Consortium Partner for IPv6 Domain Name System Hosting

Geschrieben am 13-10-2008

Redwood City, California and Mumbai (ots/PRNewswire) -
Tata Communications, a leading provider of a new world of
communications and Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. (ISC), a
non-profit public benefit corporation, announced today that the
companies will partner to provide best-in-class Domain Name System
(DNS) Hosting Services for both enterprise and service provider
customers. DNS provides critical functionality for the Internet.

DNS is the means by which organizations can be found online.
Rather than being recognized by a string of numbers representing an
IPv4 address, or as will be increasingly the case, by an IPv6
address, companies are known by the name of their website.

"The internet faces an imminent exhaustion of IPv4 addresses and
needs to urgently adopt and support the longer IPv6 addresses to
ensure its continued growth," said Genius Wong, Senior Vice President
of Global IP and VPN Services for Tata Communications. "This
agreement will provide our customers with the strongest DNS able to
resolve both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses with servers on five
continents."

In addition this partnership with Tata Communications, will allow
ISC's Solid Name Service (SNS) network to grow in global presence and
network capacity. In turn, Tata Communications will be able to bring
ISC's experience and support into supporting their own DNS
infrastructure. SNS is presently serving customer data during beta
service period with production service beginning later this year.

"SNS marks another milestone for ISC as the migration to IPv6
starts in earnest. SNS leverages our DNS operational experience to
ensure our customers are safe in the knowledge they can always be
found on the Internet," stated Paul Vixie, President of ISC. "Tata
Communications is a long standing partner since 1999 in our Hosted@
program and a network provider for many F-root locations over IPv4
and now lPv6. We look forward to continuing our long standing
relationship in the future."

Additionally, DNS is used by computers to interpret e-mail
addresses, find resources such as printers on a network and perform
other types of Internet transactions. ISC's SNS is an outsource
solution for those organizations that must be reachable 24 x 7 x 365.
As an operator of the F-root name server, one of the Internet's 13
root-name servers, ISC has over 13 years experience serving Domain
Name System data in addition to providing BIND, the most widely-used
DNS server software worldwide.
