Or skip the extra cost of the load balancer (unless there is a completely free plan?): Have both your servers run authoritative DNS but only give their own address out, with a low TTL, in response to

Poor Conceptboard. It looks like the dns for their eu side are all hosted in that dc.

I have to note that my blackholed IPs have reverse DNS containing the same domain I used to mail them. (But not the pinged IPv4 or IPv6 in their network.)

all productions under each. And then point your DNS to each haproxy.

It depends on what kind of server it is of course, but yes, dns and loadbalancers are common ways of dealing with it.

You can also use smart DNS services like "Azure Traffic Manager" to achieve auto fail-over.

Yes. You don't have to manually change DNS though. You can write a monitor script and change the DNS settings through name servers API.

How do you even achieve this? Having two servers with same files+config? so that we can manually change dns record in case on fails?

You dont need "smart dns", browsers will automatically pick the DNS record that works if one of them doesn't.

Step three: use a smart DNS service like "Azure Traffic Manager" and add the IPs and ports of both machines to your domain name. Azure Traffic Manager will monitor your servers autom

The DNS servers are cluster wide so there's no need to do any trickery with those.

The easiest part is DNS - you don't even need multiple control panels on different servers, syncing multiple slaves from a single master may be as simple as plain AXFR.

I have a DNS zone on a server running DirectAdmin & CloudLinux

If works, change DNS to 1.1.1.1 and you have internet
