BlueCat is the Adaptive DNS company. The company’s mission is to help the world’s largest organizations thrive on network complexity, from the edge to the core. To do this, BlueCat re-imagined DNS. The result – Adaptive DNS – is a dynamic, open, secure, scalable, and automated resource that supports the most challenging digital transformation initiatives, like adoption of hybrid cloud and rapid application development.
In this presentation, BlueCat’s VP Marketing, Jim Williams, will walk delegates through the company at a high level, introduce the challenges we solve for organizations generally, provide a primer on our three main solutions, and begin talking about what challenges we see organizations facing as they adopt cloud infrastructure.

In this session, BlueCat’s Chief Strategy Officer, Andrew Wertkin, will draw out some of the major DDI (DNS, DHCP, IPAM) challenges we see customers face as they adopt hybrid cloud.
The four challenges are:
- DDI teams have zero visibility into or control of cloud DNS.
- Cloud and on-premises DDI are silos, threatening zone conflicts, errors and outages.
- The inability to automate and orchestrate rapid change slows innovation.
- A growing tangle of DNS forwarding rules to manage hybrid resolution creates complexity, consuming resources and impacting end user experience.

In this session, BlueCat’s VP of Strategy Scott Penney and Chief Strategy Officer Andrew Wertkin walk the audience through BlueCat’s solutions which allow centralized DNS, DHCP, and IPAM services to be leveraged for hybrid cloud success.
As a refresher, here are the major DDI problems related to hybrid cloud architecture we see at enterprises.
- DDI teams have zero visibility into or control of cloud DNS.
- Cloud and on-premises DDI are silos, threatening zone conflicts, errors and outages.
- The inability to automate and orchestrate rapid change slows innovation.
- A growing tangle of DNS forwarding rules to manage hybrid resolution creates complexity, consuming resources and impacting end user experience.
Using BlueCat’s Gateway, Integrity, and Edge products, Scott and Andrew will demonstrate how customers can achieve:
- Visibility: seeing into all native cloud networks and resources as they are created.
- Control: extending authoritative DNS to the cloud to reduce risk and allow for global visibility, control, automation.
- Speed: enabling DevOps teams to move fast, while maintaining control and compliance.
- Simplicity: cutting through the complexity of conditional forwarding rules to provide a more performant and appropriate end user experience.
