Overview

BIND is the most widely deployed DNS server software, used to run authoritative zones and recursive resolvers across the internet and inside private networks. It supports DNSSEC, views, zone transfers and the full range of standard record types.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg ships BIND 9 hardened, fully patched and preconfigured with sensible defaults so named starts cleanly and is ready to serve zones. The build follows current security guidance rather than leaving an open resolver exposed. Backed by 24/7 support.

Common uses

  • Authoritative DNS hosting
  • Internal recursive resolution
  • DNSSEC signed zones
