With the explosion of devices on the network, the new model of the hybrid workforce, and cloud adoption driving more traffic to the internet, delivering core network services is complex. DDI provides a unified platform for three critical network services: DNS (Domain Name System), DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), and IPAM (IP address management). DNS maps web domains to IP addresses. DHCP assigns IP addresses to network elements, and IPAM helps organizations to manage those IP addresses. These network services make IT teams more efficient and give them greater control and visibility over network resources.

Enterprise organizations have increasingly implemented DDI in recent years. Researchers predict that this trend will likely continue, with sources predicting 15-17% growth in the market. This growth is driven by such factors as the increasing adoption of IoT, BYOD, virtualization, and IPv6. 1,2

Infoblox® NIOS is the industry’s first cloud-managed DDI solution that enables IT to centrally control and automate DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (DDI) for hybrid and multi-cloud networks. NIOS eliminates the complexity and bottlenecks in large-scale distributed networks.
