Rackspace cloud's DNS stuff stinks. No way to add TXT records -- you have to open a ticket! Sure you can host it yourself, but every other cloud provider has this in their UI.
I get the feeling they're just in "maintenence mode" over there and don't have anyone working hard on improving the offerings.
- danudey 16y agoTheir DNS used to be great, if simple. You could put in a record for your new server and by the time you'd logged in, the record was live. Now, it's gotten to the point where their DNS updates so slowly that I just re-use old subdomains instead of creating new ones, just so that I can get my project tested today rather than tomorrow. I'm working on moving everything over to Amazon; more flexibility. I like Rackspace Cloud, but they're falling behind and they either don't know, don't care, or can't catch up.
- megaman821 16y agoWhat is even more sad, is that their DNS console for hosted servers and Slicehost is so much better. They are literally sitting on something better and giving their cloud customers crap.
