DNS, 5G and the Cloud

A Heavy Reading white paper produced for Infoblox

Telecom operators are racing to unlock the full potential of 5G standalone (SA) and cloud-native architectures—but there’s one often-overlooked technology quietly powering this evolution: DNS.

In this exclusive analyst report from Heavy Reading, based on a global survey of 90 Tier 1 and Tier 2/3 service providers, you'll discover how DNS is not only foundational to 5G and cloud—but pivotal in enabling new revenue streams, supporting AI-driven security, and solving performance challenges at scale.

Whether you’re deploying private 5G, scaling managed services, or rethinking your DNS architecture for distributed, API-driven environments, this report delivers the strategic data and insights you need to stay ahead.

Grab your copy and discover:

  • Why 75% of service providers say DNS is critical to delivering cloud-based managed security—and the key to 5G SA rollouts.
  • How SPs are using DNS to support latency-sensitive services like fixed wireless access, URLLC, and private 5G across hybrid cloud environments.
  • Why AI-powered DNS is emerging as a core enabler of automated threat detection and service performance optimization.

IP ADDRESS TOOL

Infoblox IPAM Free Trial

Automate and simplify how you manage IPaddresses at scale.

The complexity of the network is growing beyond the reach of traditional IP address tools. The need for accurate and dynamic IP address management (IPAM) is becoming even more crucial. Today's need for IPAM has gone beyond IP address tracking and allocation to centrally maintain a real-time view of additions, moves, and changes.


Infoblox Enterprise DDI combines three critical core network services—DNS, DHCP and IP address management—into a single scalable platform that includes advanced security, reliability, and unmatched operational efficiencies.
