Observability
Latency percentiles, error rates, who's actually querying your zones, and early warning signs before they become an outage — all in one place, Observability. The screenshots below are from a real production account with real traffic, not a demo with fake numbers — domain and host names are blurred out.
The headline numbers
At the top: total queries, active zones, p95 latency (95% of queries answered faster than this), spike events in the last 7 days, and SERVFAIL % (values above 1% usually mean a misconfigured zone, upstream resolver issue, or DNSSEC validation failure).
2.5M queries, 9ms p95 latency, 0.01% SERVFAIL — a healthy zone.
Query rate over time
Every zone plotted together, zoomable and pannable. The spikes here are real — the kind of thing you want to see explained, not discover from a support ticket.
Spotting problems before they're reported to you
Error rate over time plots SERVFAIL % per minute/hour with a dashed line at the 5% alert threshold.
Response codes breaks down NOERROR / NXDOMAIN / SERVFAIL / REFUSED next to Query types — a rising NXDOMAIN rate often means a client is misconfigured or probing your zone.
SERVFAIL by zone and TTL advisor (frequently-queried records with a TTL under 300s — candidates for raising TTL to cut query load) narrow a problem down to a specific zone or record before a customer files a ticket.
Who's actually querying you
Top resolvers shows which recursive resolvers (ISPs, public DNS services) query your zones most, next to NXDOMAIN bursts — clients sending unusually many non-existent-name queries in a short window, a common sign of DNS enumeration or scanning.
Geographic distribution shows where queries actually originate — here, mostly UK, Poland and the US.
Top queried names and Top NXDOMAIN names show exactly which hostnames drive your traffic — and which ones people keep querying that don't exist.
Patterns over time
Traffic heatmap shows query volume by hour of day and day of week over the last 30 days — useful for spotting usage patterns and planning maintenance windows during quiet periods.
Email DNS health tracks MX and TXT query volume — useful when debugging mail delivery issues or spotting a spam campaign targeting your domain.
Everything is filterable and exportable
Every widget respects the zone and time-range filters at the top of the page. The Request log (last 500 queries, filterable by response code) is the raw material behind all the charts above, if you need to drill into individual queries.
Tie it to alerts
These same signals (SERVFAIL %, NXDOMAIN %, traffic spikes, zone silence, SSL expiry) can trigger a webhook automatically instead of you having to watch the dashboard — see Webhooks & Alerts.
