Have you ever faced issues with receiving responses from servers? Timeouts, errors, or empty replies can significantly disrupt some workflows. But I tried, and I think I found a solution!

🟩 The new OpenBLD.net feature includes a guaranteed response system that activates in cases where the standard resolution process fails. If you receive a Servfail status or other errors, we employ additional logic, and the service takes a:

• Internal pool of servers.
• External pool of servers.

By mixing both, we ensure unique servers without upstreams that returned a fail status or are busy.

This means that even if the initial response was unsuccessful, we continue the search for the correct answer, ensuring reliability and accuracy for you.

Don’t let response issues slow down your life or business!

Be yourself, be focused! ✌️

We're excited to announce that OpenBLD.net has launched a new Point of Presence (PoP) in Canada, hosted by REGXA!

In collaboration with REGXA, we also plan to establish two more PoPs in France and India in the next six months. I truly believe this partnership will bring significant benefits to everyone—enhancing the security of OpenBLD.net for our users and expanding our reach. REGXA has proven to be a reliable hosting provider, successfully handling the current load of OpenBLD.net.

Moreover, our tests indicate that the new server in Canada responds significantly faster than others. So, we're moving forward!

Take care, everyone! ✌️

🚀 OpenBLD.net - Switched to in-touch release model

A few weeks ago I announced Canary release, now I decided switch to "in-touch" deployment stages.

To start with, I'm using my "Flex App Additions Methodology" in my projects. Often some bugs have to be fixed quickly, we all want these bugs to be fixed quickly..)

My "in-touch" release model includes:

1. Trunk-based development model
2. Rolling release
3. Canary > Production deployment

This model can includes unnotified maintenance window ~3 minutes or 3 iteration maximum in a day, this does not mean that the service will be unavailable at this time, you just need to keep in mind that if suddenly something goes wrong for you, you immediately let me know about it, that's all)

Be patient while running, only forward!

OpenBLD.net is always with you ✌️

🚀 OpenBLD.net new DNS server in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 Almaty

Recently learned about 3hcloud.kz. Went, tried it and was pleasantly surprised:

• speed (connectivity and instances are super)
• liked the firewall
• prices were pleasantly surprising

After several weeks of testing, I can firmly say - compatibility with OpenBLD.net is present.

Configure Chrome as described here:

• How-to set up your favorite Browser

And then open the site that got you with ads and be surprised yourself.

P.S. There is a case or something does not work - welcome at any time (contacts)

P.P.S. Yandex Cloud unfortunately turned out to be incompatible with OpenBLD.net quality requirements, all servers based on this cloud will be abolished in the near future ⚰️

I hear a lot of good reviews from people about the new Yandex cloud in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿. And so, having saved up some money and received a small deposit from Yandex, I decided to try the cloud.

Starting today, a new server has appeared in Karaganda, which will enter the general OpenBLD.net ecosystem in the next 24 hours.

I really hope that this step will help improve the service, speed up the work of DoH and DoT clients of the capital of the Kazakhstan region and Central Kazakhstan as a whole.

Let's go further in a good mood and faith in success 💪

You can find out how to connect to the service on the project homepage.

Today wll deploy new zBLD backend release in to production environment.

Major updates:

• Adding Rsyslog log forwarder
• Blocking log enricher - additional (domain category) into to rsyslog
• Guarantee DNS response mechanisms
• Reduce some log messages
• Update local log rotation mechanisms
• Fix global DNS queries counter for Prometheus exporter exporter

Impact:

• There won't be an impact, but if you get a timeout today, it should be as short as possible

In any case, I'm always in touch) Peace! 😎
