Episode description

Kris Beevers, founder, and CEO of NS1 joins me on Tech Talks Daily. I learn more about how this New York City-based startup delivers smart network control across core network services for over 800 global customers, including Dropbox, Fox, Salesforce, LinkedIn, & eBay.

We also talk about the tech startup story behind their success which began as a specialist in DNS, and to quote TechCrunch, took: 'a slumbering and dreary yet reliable aspect of the Internet and turned it into a strategic moat and an enterprise win'.

Kris is a recognized authority on all things DNS, but he also knows a lot about building and deploying high-performance infrastructure globally. He has a Ph.D. in Computer Science. We discuss the impact of outages (including in the summer heatwave) and the importance of multi-cloud or multi-CDNs. We also talk about DDoS attacks, the importance of working with the open source community.
