Abstract: Systems and methods for improving Domain Name System (DNS) traffic routing, the systems and methods have a DNS resolver in digital communication with a microprocessor of an authoritative DNS server, wherein the authoritative DNS server is configured to make DNS traffic routing decisions, wherein a DNS query, associated with a requested DNS resource record, is transmitted to the authoritative DNS server. The systems and methods have at least one database in digital communication with, and accessible by, the authoritative DNS server, wherein the authoritative DNS server identifies the requested DNS resource record associated with the DNS query and extracts, from the at least one database, one or more configuration details associated with the requested DNS resource record, wherein the one or more configuration details associated comprise at least an input collection of potential answers to the DNS query and at least one assigned filter instruction.

Abstract: Systems and methods improve Domain Name System (DNS) traffic management and comprise ingesting first input data associated with one or more candidate DNS answers, compiling or manipulating of the first input data into a normalized form to provide normalized data that is usable by at least one dynamic DNS system for computing one or more answers to DNS queries, and transferring the normalized data to at least one globally distributed DNS software actor that is responsible for executing one or more DNS traffic management algorithms using the normalized data as second input data for use, wherein the at least one globally distributed DNS software actor is configured to execute a dynamic DNS decision making process utilizing the normalized data.
