According to its Thursday announcement, Dyn Inc. has also announced the re-launch of its signature brand, DynDNS.com, which offers DNS services to home users, and small and medium-sized businesses. Combined with its enterprise-class Dynect Platform, Dyn Inc. hopes to have a range of DNS offerings to suit every consumer, consultant, small business, organization and corporation.
"We obsess everyday over how to better serve our customers," Dyn Inc. chief executive officer Jeremy Hitchcock said in a statement. "This is an extremely strategic and monumental move for our organization. We aim to be the only authoritative DNS service provider with a DNS solution for everyone, from the home user to the enterprise. The acquisition of EveryDNS immediately and significantly expands the number of domains under our trusted watch and helps continue the consolidation in our space. Today is a banner day in the history of Dyn Inc. and a noteworthy day for the DNS industry as a whole."
EveryDNS was founded nine years ago by DNS expert David Ulevitch, who has led the company as it has grown to support more than 300,000 domains. Highly regarded as a DNS industry mainstay, Ulevitch selected Dyn Inc. among several potential suitors. "I chose Dyn Inc. as the home for all 300,000 EveryDNS users because of Dyn's great people, great customer support and great technology on DynDNS.com and the Dynect Platform," Ulevitch said in a statement. "I'm confident the EveryDNS user base will benefit from this acquisition in both the near and long-term and I'm excited to work with Dyn Inc. on what will be a very smooth transition."
Dyn Inc. product management vice president Cory von Wallenstein said the company hopes to expand its reach in 2010 to help not only "elite DNS geeks," but a broader variety of users who could benefit from DNS services. "Just look around CES, everyone wants to see their web cam while away or to be able to change their home DVR recording schedule while they are at work," von Wallenstein stated. "Today, many people don't know that Dynamic DNS is a technology that powers remote connectivity for applications. In 2010 they will."
