BlueCat Networks Joins the Cisco Developer Network as a Registered Developer
Toronto, Canada – January 13, 2011 – BlueCat Networks, the IPAM Intelligence™ company, today announced that it has joined the Cisco Developer Network as a Registered Developer within the Integrated Services Router technology category.
BlueCat Networks announced it joined the Cisco Developer Network as a Registered Developer and completed interoperability verification testing for its Adonis DNS/DHCP Appliance V6 with Cisco Unified Computing System Express Cisco 2900 Series Routers. The article addresses the real-world need for tested, interoperable DDI (DNS, DHCP, IPAM) solutions in Cisco-based network environments to improve deployment speed, management, and performance of Cisco-compatible applications and services. As a result, BlueCat can collaborate with Cisco to offer complementary products that help customers centrally manage DNS/DHCP/IPAM services, enhancing uptime and scalability for enterprise and government networks.
What does BlueCat’s registration in the Cisco Developer Network mean for customers?
By joining the Cisco Developer Network as a Registered Developer, BlueCat Networks becomes part of an ecosystem that connects Cisco with third-party hardware and software developers to deliver tested interoperable solutions. For customers this means BlueCat can collaborate directly with Cisco to align its offerings—such as the Adonis DNS/DHCP Appliance V6—with Cisco technologies, helping customers deploy Cisco-compatible applications, devices, and services more quickly. The registration signals that BlueCat’s products are intended to complement Cisco environments and that the companies will work together to meet joint customer requirements.
What interoperability testing did BlueCat complete and what does it imply?
BlueCat Networks’ Adonis DNS/DHCP Appliance V6 successfully completed interoperability verification testing with Cisco Unified Computing System Express Cisco 2900 Series Routers. Interoperability testing is designed to simulate typical customer configurations to validate that the products work together, which helps reduce deployment risk and supports predictable integration in Cisco network deployments. The article notes, however, that such testing does not replace the need for on-site testing during actual implementation, so customers should validate interoperability in their own environments before production deployment.
How do BlueCat’s solutions address operational challenges in enterprise networks?
BlueCat positions itself as a leader in DDI—DNS (including DNSSEC), DHCP and IP Address Management (IPAM)—providing centralized management, control, tracking and auditing of IPv4, IPv6, DNS and DNSSEC networks. Available as software (VMware), hardware appliance and managed service (Proteus Cloud Services), BlueCat’s solutions aim to solve critical network management issues caused by exponential IP address growth, improving uptime and scalability for small to large organizations. The interoperable Adonis appliance specifically supports faster deployment of Cisco-compatible business applications, devices, and services, enhancing capabilities, performance and management of Cisco networks.
