Why the Internet Breaks (Lessons from Recent Cloud Outages)

Most teams treat DNS as a one-time setup, until downtime proves otherwise. This webinar explains why registrar DNS is a liability at production scale, and how authoritative DNS with Anycast routing changes the availability equation entirely. VergeCloud engineers Dhiraj Chaudhary and Arsath Parves cover the full DNS hierarchy, geo-proximity traffic steering, and DNSSEC as a defence against cache poisoning and volumetric DNS attacks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do big brands use single cloud systems?

Often due to cost-benefit assumptions or inertia; technical teams must communicate the actual risk to business teams.

Use event-based architectures, master-slave sync, and master repositories for config rollout.

No. The majority of large-scale outages are triggered by configuration changes, software deployments, or cascading failures rather than hardware. This makes most outages preventable.

A multi-CDN strategy distributes traffic across two or more CDN providers so that if one experiences an outage, traffic automatically fails over to a backup while maintaining availability for end users.

VergeCloud can serve as a primary or secondary CDN layer within a multi-provider architecture, offering Indian PoPs, fast failover, and transparent routing configuration.

IndiaSecurityWebinar
Best for: CTOs, E-commerce Owners, IT Managers, Security Engineers

Indian websites face four times the global average in cyberattacks, yet most teams still assume their cloud provider handles application layer security. This webinar examines the real threat landscape for Indian businesses, drawing from major 2024 data breaches at Boat, Star Health, and BSNL. VergeCloud Solutions Engineer Arsath Parves covers WAF, API security, DDoS mitigation, and bot filtering, and walks you through a practical origin lockdown checklist you can act on right away.
