Infoblox 250-A Grid Upgrade for Network Services One
The NS1 with Grid package also includes the Grid upgrade which provides patented Infoblox technology for linking distributed appliances into a unified Grid. The embedded databases in all Infoblox appliances within a Grid are intelligently interconnected so that they share a common, real-time view of host names, IP leases, and other network services data. The Infoblox Grid uses secure communication among appliances and also uses sophisticated database technology to maintain data integrity. This ensures that all appliances in the Grid have the right data and that the Grid continues to deliver services without data loss or corruption in the face of a wide range of device or WAN failures. Infoblox Grid technology also supports intelligent data replication to minimize the use of bandwidth in the Grid and to enable “right-sized” appliances to be deployed at each location.
