Our take
The Domain Name System, otherwise known as DNS, is the key addressing system that connects browsers, users, devices and servers together. NS1's comprehensive platform technology leverages infrastructure, application, and network data to make intelligent routing decisions in real-time, ensuring optimal application performance and reliability.
There are a raft of companies that compete with NS1 in the cloud infrastructure such as GoDaddy DNS, Cloudflare DNS, Amazon Route 53 and Google Cloud DNS. However, the company is continually innovating to develop modern foundational technologies that power the connected economy, helping it keep an edge. Further, NS1's variety of roles that facilitate skill growth is what makes it stands out; it offers opportunities to both senior and emerging tech talent.
NS1 is scaling up, and in 2022 extended its operations to Ireland as part of its global expansion plans. It has also brought its solutions to the AWS marketplace, and given the size of this platform, NS1 should see its operations significantly grow.
