We primarily use BlueCat Edge for our entire internal infrastructure and all internal clients for all DNS resolution needs. We also leverage it for DNS redirects, integrations between cloud and on-premises providers, and as a sorting engine to direct queries to the appropriate internal DNS infrastructure. This is necessary because we have multiple internal infrastructures for resolving internal system queries. We implemented BlueCat Edge to solve the visibility and security issues we were having. Our infrastructure, including both Edge and BlueCat components, utilizes a full hybrid cloud and on-premises model.

We are utilizing it as a DNS traffic management and security solution. This way, we can capture and utilize BlueCat's cloud AI solution to find malicious DNS requests, get them over to us, and take corrective actions on those.

We use BlueCat Edge, but we have mostly been using the IPAM portion of it where we just manage the IPs and so on.
