Infoblox helps ensure agile, resilient and predictable network services for even the complex network infrastructure requirements of high-tech organizations. Infoblox reduces the risk of performance impact by finding potential problems lurking in the network infrastructure, automating manual tasks and controlling the network services within a secure, reliable and highly available solution. Infoblox mitigates the risk of potential failure points, including an out-of-service DNS/DHCP service or an unplanned router change negatively impacting overall performance.
With high-availability, resilient appliances, Infoblox helps technology companies meet network service requirements for their ever-changing needs. The single, integrated interface and scalable and hardened appliances with patented high-availability Grid™ technology reduce the risk for outages normally associated with Microsoft or Unix server platforms. The tracking and auditing for DNS, DHCP, IP address and network changes meet compliance requirements and help identify potential issues faster and easier than the traditional reactive troubleshooting approach.

- Shows the impact of changes to the health and stability of the network
Challenges
High-Tech Companies Deserve High-Tech Solutions
Renowned for being thought leaders and innovators for the products they create for their customers, high technology organizations sometimes resemble the cobbler who fails to shoe his children when it comes to their internal IT processes. Instead of seeking the best technology and automation to manage their network infrastructure, IT teams at high-tech firms often rely on general purpose servers, manual processes and spreadsheets to manage complex aspects like IP address management, DNS, DHCP and network change and configuration management.
Infoblox can help you replace the “low-tech” way of managing your network and its unnecessary risks and use of excess resources. Even as dependence on software applications and IP-enabled devices increases, Infoblox reduces the amount of time and effort required to manage IP addresses and network configuration and change by eliminating manual approaches to these tasks and replacing them with automated control of your network. Infoblox can also assist you in accommodating multi-vendor network environments and lack of expertise with unfamiliar networking equipment so that you can be free to explore the next edge for cutting the future.
Along with more than 5,000 organizations, many of the world’s best technology enterprises use Infoblox solutions to ensure maximum network uptime, meet internal compliance, manage changes, and keep the business running, while simultaneously making constant improvements to their dynamic infrastructure.
IT management challenges for high-tech organizations
Many high-tech organizations rely on best practices and automation in development and production. A single short issue could ripple throughout the entire workflow, causing negative consequences to continue down the line and increase over time as the impact builds momentum. Eliminating potential problems is the first priority, but if an issue slips through, identifying, isolating and resolving it quickly can keep a minor hiccup from becoming a full blown outage.
Many high-tech companies have internal best practices and/or may be forced to meet external compliance mandates based on partnerships or selling channels. In an interesting irony, even though the high-tech business has become more automated over the past decades, many IT staffs still follow legacy approaches and manual processes when dealing with IP address management and network configuration and change management. Challenges include:
- Unnecessary risk of downtime from individual servers with limited and unreliable disaster recovery options
- Higher audit costs and exposure to penalties, sanctions or fines for compliance violations, including PCI and ITIL
- Burdensome requirements for local expertise and knowledge to maintain disparate assets and tools
- Higher exposure of unintended consequences for both planned and unplanned changes
- New risk and high vulnerability to both internal and external attacks and threats with multiple access points
- Disparate, inconsistent network services with no centralized visibility and management
- Additional exposure and cost with limited manual tracking and logs for compliance requirements and/or troubleshooting needs
