Have you thought about setting up with an external DNS monitoring service? It's cheap and really comes in handy over the years.

What's important is that you treat the DNS management aspect of your business as a proper thing to be managed by itself. Whether you host it yourself, or contract it out to a service that specifically does this for you is a matter of

You would.. but the business of being a registrar is bout managing zone records to be served out by the root/regional nameserver infrastructure, which your registrar may not even have much of a part in. If they run additional business

To Rhizomes point: Yes, it's relatively easy to re-point them to somewhere else.. and if your business can tolerate the interruption that's fine. Those changes, though, take time to cache out, and depending on your registrar'

One aspect of Network Solutions business is managing some of the root zones. Those are the servers that ultimately tell the internet what other servers to go look at to resolve queries. These are the "root" nameservers. So while

Right.. but when you find correlation, you just see that two things are obviously related in some way - there is a common factor. It could be direct causation, or it could be any number of other things. The question is whether or not you

It's not closely tied to real money; not by design. That's a side effect, due to the relative stability of the in-game currency, and the ability to convert in-game currency into in-game stuff, and the number of players. This crea

I partially understand it, but I can't accept it as long as I'm unable to get the media I want with the subtitles I want. I'm perfectly willing to pay, but all too often I simply can't.

Sure it's valid.. and in the US, if I'm not mistaken, it's expressly legal to call yourself whatever you want - as long as you aren't doing so to commit a crime. So during day to day business and life, you can call yours

I don't see VMs and Containers at odds. Virtual Machines let us abstract away our hardware resources. They also made deploying new instances much easier than it was previously, so we started using more instances than we would ahve wit

One would imagine that any escape procedure from a submarine involves some type of airlock and some type of air breathed in at the pressure for whatever depth you are at.. otherwise you'd just be unconscious from the pain instantly.
