In a few days we will use our new DNS cluster. We use a PowerDNS setup for it. Bind/named is the hidden master on each DirectAdmin server. On 3 other servers PowerDNS is installed too. They replicate from the PowerDNS master server. I reduced the lookup time of DNS records with half a second and it is really fast, cheap and reliable.

The PowerDNS master server is a SSD VPS so the changes can be made very fast. All servers are in different networks on different locations in the world.
