We have deployed BlueCat Edge across our organization globally. Regional-based queries are directed to BlueCat Edge, and they are resolved within the regions themselves. For instance, we have an Anycast setup with a single IP assigned to specific regions, allowing queries to be resolved efficiently without needing to reach out to different locations.

We have Edge deployed at roughly forty locations and use it as the primary DNS server for all our locations. Each location points to an Edge instance, which then points back to the Integrity instance.
In our network, BlueCat Edge acts as the central point of contact for all DNS requests. It essentially functions like a DNS resolver, directing our internal devices to the correct resources. This makes BlueCat Edge the first stop for all DNS traffic within our organization.

We primarily use BlueCat Edge for our entire internal infrastructure and all internal clients for all DNS resolution needs. We also leverage it for DNS redirects, integrations between cloud and on-premises providers, and as a sorting engine to direct queries to the appropriate internal DNS infrastructure. This is necessary because we have multiple internal infrastructures for resolving internal system queries. We implemented BlueCat Edge to solve the visibility and security issues we were having. Our infrastructure, including both Edge and BlueCat components, utilizes a full hybrid cloud and on-premises model.

We are utilizing it as a DNS traffic management and security solution. This way, we can capture and utilize BlueCat's cloud AI solution to find malicious DNS requests, get them over to us, and take corrective actions on those.

We use BlueCat Edge, but we have mostly been using the IPAM portion of it where we just manage the IPs and so on.
