3 min readDec 17, 2020

Online presence is everything right now. One minute of downtime could literally cost you thousands of dollars. Longer spurts are not only costlier but are disruptive and potentially disastrous for the end users who depend on your services. Wouldn’t you feel better knowing your domains had an “Overwatch?” Think of our super team of developers as the heroes for DNS — we’ve got all your classes covered from Defense to Support.

Backed by the same infrastructure as our sister company DNS Made Easy, and with a lifetime history of 100% uptime, our customers have always enjoyed peace of mind knowing their domains were safe and secure with us. But we take it a step further with our innovative Real-time Traffic Anomaly Detection (RTTAD) solution.

We’re Watching Your DNS Even While You Sleep

Protecting your domain has never been easier! Our Real-time Traffic Anomaly Detection solution (RTTAD) lets your organization make proactive decisions so that you can rest easy. We’re always on, even when you’re off. And now you can access this feature and have it up and running within five minutes.

How Real-time Traffic Anomaly Detection Works

Constellix’s real-time anomaly detection instantly identifies suspicious activity and traffic spikes so you can stop attacks before they happen. Real-Time Traffic Anomaly Detection (RTTAD) is the only service of its kind in the industry and provides unparalleled insight into your DNS with features such as:

  1. Flexible monitoring solutions
    Monitor by world and region, or get even more specific and monitor by city.
  2. Real-time monitoring in 30-minute intervals
    Get peace of mind knowing RTTAD is always watching your DNS traffic, and it updates every 30 minutes. You could say, we’ve got you in our sight.
  3. Historical data for your domains
    Never be caught unaware and spot inconsistencies with ease. With Real-time Traffic Anomaly Detection, you can view your domain’s traffic history and compare it to your real-time data.
  4. Built to scale
    Our RTTAD solution is built to scale and can benefit any business, no matter the size.
  5. Extraordinary protection at an extraordinary price
    A powerful and reliable DNS solution doesn’t (and shouldn’t) have to be cost-prohibitive. Our Real-time Traffic Anomaly Detection solution starts at only $50 per month per domain.
  6. Industry-leading machine learning
    Our machine-learning algorithm constantly analyzes your data and updates so it can easily understand how to monitor and effectively predict your traffic. The longer anomaly detection is turned on for your domain(s), the “smarter” it gets and the smaller the window grows, allowing you to pinpoint anomalies with greater accuracy.
  7. Instant alerts
    If any suspicious spikes occur, your team will be automatically notified with a real-time reporting graph that includes custom analytics. You’ll always know what’s happening with your domain(s).

We’re here in the event of an anomaly.

No matter what digital storm comes your way, you can be confident in knowing your domain(s) are fast, safe, and secure. You’ll also enjoy ultimate peace of mind — and you can’t put a price tag on that! Check out the video below to get a step-by-step configuration setup.
