As a result of our work we have provided a number of bug-fixes and performance improvements to the PowerDNS project. Some highlights:
- Provide an ultra high performance backend (lmdb). Turns PowerDNS into a database-driven DNS server capable of serving over 400,000 Queries per Second with real-time updates to provide anti-DDOS protection.
- Increase the speed of the Query Cache by 400%
- Significantly improve PowerDNS scaliability over large numbers of cores by redesigning the distributor threading code, removing locks and using advanced OS socket features (SO_REUSEPORT)
