Fragmented DDI slows your business down

Hodgepodge DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (IPAM) processes create significant operational challenges, hindering change and leaving your network susceptible to security gaps. Without a centralized foundation, the difficulty of managing network services will grow unchecked as networks expand, diversify across clouds, and adapt to new security challenges. 

Unified DDI (DNS, DHCP, and IPAM are together known as DDI) consolidates, automates, and streamlines the core network services that connect devices, applications, and people across your network, whether on premises or in any cloud. It’s also the key to network automation, which is the only way to get on top of change. 

The result is a network that can adapt more quickly to support initiatives like SASE, SD-WAN, remote work, wide-scale AI adoption, and whatever comes next.

The foundation for Intelligent NetOps

DDI isn’t the end of the road. When you integrate network management tools with end-to-end observability and intelligence, connecting the core services that administer your network to the systems that understand it, you bridge the gap between the systems that manage your network and the systems that change it.

The best unified DDI products for scale and automation

We offer DDI in two flavors, Integrity and Micetro, to meet specific network contexts

Integrity: API-first, extensible full-stack platform

Deploy Integrity on dedicated servers to manage, provision, secure, and visualize your network across any data center, cloud, or branch location. Integrity integrates seamlessly with third-party systems or applications via open, well-documented, and vendor-agnostic RESTful APIs to support end-to-end network automation.

Frequently asked questions

DDI stands for DNS (Domain Name System), DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), and IPAM (IP address management).

A DDI solution automates and centralizes DNS, DHCP, and IPAM, ensuring efficient network operations, security, and scalability.

DDI management solutions simplify role creation and enhance visibility, empowering IT teams to focus on what matters most: keeping the network running smoothly, securely, and efficiently.

A DDI management solution improves network reliability, automation, security, scalability, and visibility, reducing manual errors and simplifying IT operations.

But Unified DDI is about more than simplifying IT—it’s about transforming operations. From enhanced visibility and control to automation and unmatched reliability, a unified DDI platform offers deep operational benefits.

A DDI management solution simplifies network management, reduces manual errors, ensures high availability, and enhances security, especially for growing or complex IT environments.

Unified DDI is a business transformation tool that empowers organizations to reduce costs, mitigate risks, and embrace digital innovation. It’s an investment in agility, security, and growth for enterprises looking to stay competitive in a rapidly evolving world.

A DDI solution reduces attack surfaces, detects threats at the DNS level, and enforces policies to prevent malicious activity and unauthorized access.

DDI management solutions offer centralized policy enforcement, real-time threat detection, and automated response capabilities. Unified DDI reduces security challenges by providing a centralized platform offering real-time insight into all DNS zones, DHCP scopes, and IP address usage. Unified DDI also supports zero-trust security models through granular access controls and consistent policy enforcement.
