Case Study: Telenor achieves global load balancing and improved CDN performance with Dyn Managed DNS and Traffic Director

Connecting Mobile Content Using Dyn

Telenor, a large European telecommunications company with over 160 million mobile subscriptions, faced a challenge in managing its content delivery network (CDN). It needed a global load balancing solution to reliably connect its users to the closest data center for optimal performance, rather than investing in expensive, in-house hardware and software. The company sought a managed DNS provider to meet this need.

Dyn provided the solution through its Managed DNS and Traffic Director services. The implementation of Dyn's Geolocation Load Balancing feature gave Telenor granular control to direct traffic based on user location, ensuring high uptime and scalability. As a result, Telenor's technology staff gained confidence that their CDN traffic management and uptime needs were reliably handled by Dyn.
