Introducing Nixu Registry Server: Productized Registry System for TLDs

Nixu Software has launched Nixu Registry Server, a second generation Domain Name Registry Solution (DNRS) designed for generic and mid-sized country-code Top-Level Domains (gTLD / ccTLD). Nixu Registry Server has been developed together with certain ccTLD customers already running Nixu DNRS in production, leveraging Nixu Group's decade-long experience from TLD environments.

Depending on the project scope, Nixu Registry Server can be delivered either as a highly-available standalone DNRS integrated with existing Domain Name System (DNS) platform, or as a part of a complete end-to-end DNRS & DNS Infrastructure turnkey delivery. To address the related business requirements, Nixu Registry Server supports various configurable domain accounting rules, and can be integrated with virtually any billing and other backend systems.

"Because of their limited number, TLDs have been forced to spend large sums on developing custom-built DNRS systems that are rather modest in terms of process automation" said Juha Holkkola, Managing Director of Nixu Software. "Bearing in mind the new technology requirements from ICANN and local regulatory authorities - and ICANN's move to open gTLDs up for application in 2010 - we think DNRS systems should be productized for economies of scale. Running a tried and proved DNRS solution instead of a custom-built system creates significant economic benefits both in terms of development and operational costs."

Nixu Registry Server and related consultancy services are available immediately. For further details and/or a product demonstration, please contact Nixu Software Sales.
