UltraDNS Bulletproofs the .tv Top Level Domain

The .tv Corporation Leverages UltraDNS' Carrier-Class, Full Fail-Over DNS Platform To Deliver Improved Performance and Reliability to Users of the .tv Domain

SAN MATEO, Calif., March 27, 2001 - UltraDNS(tm) Corporation, a managed directory services company that offers the industry's leading service-based solutions for next-generation networks and global applications, today announced the first deployment of its commercial Domain Name System (DNS) platform to support an ICANN-approved top-level domain. The .tv Corporation, a leading provider of Web identity services worldwide and the exclusive source for Web addresses ending in .tv, has added the Managed DNS Service to its current robust infrastructure. Managed DNS Service is a complete, fully integrated outsourced DNS solution, powered by UltraDNS' global network of full fail-over servers. Users who visit any .tv Web site (i.e. mysite.tv) will now reach those sites with substantially improved speed and reliability.

"The .tv Corporation is committed to providing our customers the latest and most advanced technologies in the domain name industry.," said Lou Kerner, CEO of The .tv Corporation. "Our DNS system is a strategic investment for The .tv Corporation since its reliability and performance is directly related to the satisfaction of everyone that visits a .tv Web site. UltraDNS delivers a solution that satisfies our strong requirements for a bulletproof DNS infrastructure. The UltraDNS solution provides a highly scalable and manageable platform that enables us to continue to grow rapidly and service our base of global customers."

Phil Reese, Vice President of Technology, The .tv Corporation, added, "The .tv Corp. chose UltraDNS to compliment our current state-of-the-art DNS infrastructure. By integrating UltraDNS technology, we have created a more powerful and dynamic DNS infrastructure."

Ben Petro, chief marketing officer for UltraDNS, commented, "We are pleased that The .tv Corporation selected our carrier-class global DNS platform and Managed DNS Service to help power their top-level domain, .tv. We are committed to providing The .tv Corp. with the world's most reliable DNS infrastructure and helping them deliver outstanding service to their customers and the millions of users who visit .tv Web sites."

The performance and reliability of the DNS system is vital to a Top Level Domain like .tv since DNS forms the first link in the chain of events that connect an Internet user to a Web site. By translating the name typed into a browser (www.yourbiz.tv) to an IP address (112.34.567.88), DNS touches virtually every Internet transaction including surfing, email, research, education and shopping. UltraDNS, through its advanced directory services platform and Managed DNS Service, delivers 100% reliable DNS, backed by a full Service Level guarantee (SLA).
