Abstract:
Implementations relate to systems and methods for configuring a probe server network using a reliability model. A company, customer, or organization may wish to outsource the management of a set of name servers used to operate a domain name, such as a domain name associated with a Web site. In aspects, that deployment of name servers can be monitored by a separate set of failover or probe servers which are configured to track the uptime, operability, and performance of the underlying name servers, which can number in the thousands. An administrator or other user may wish to determine a minimum number of probe servers to apply to the name server topology, to achieve desired service levels. According to aspects, automated tools and logic are provided which model and simulate the overall network including the number and arrangement of necessary probe servers to ensure performance, failover reliability, and other factors.
