A DNS server for hosting your domains

What do you like best?

The fact that it can get input from different sources. I've used it extensively with sqlite but have tested it with other inputs too. MySQL and high availability setup was intriguing.

What do you dislike?

Sometimes the REST API is not well understood by me. I needed stuff to be done via the REST API and it was not possible / implemented, although it seemed the functionality was there.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I've run internal DNS services with PowerDNS and implemented split-brain setups. It can be the best choice for such environments, especially coupled with unbound and / or dnsdist
