BIND 10 & DHCP

BIND 10

BIND 10 is the next generation version of BIND, ISC's DNS server. We have a long list of ways that we wanted to improve on BIND 9, including scalability, reliability, modularity, extensibility, and usability. The project to build BIND 10 has been active for the past 2 years, and now has a usable (though not yet production ready) server.

Evolution of Internet Exchanges

Something we're fortunate to have at ISC is the founders of some of the most influential Internet Exchanges (IXPs) amongst our senior staff. I haven't been personally involved in the IXP business for around 7 years now, so it was a pleasure to be invited as guest speaker to the AGM of the TorIX, Canada's biggest IXP, in Toronto.
