Research of distributed performance testing and monitoring system for DNS based on Promethus

Abstract

Domain name resolution service is the entrance for Internet access and traffic scheduling, therefore the performance of the Domain Name System (DNS) directly affects the user access experience. Based on the Promethus time series database, this paper designs and implements a distributed automatic test and monitoring system for response performance of domain name system. This system can only not test the multi-node distbuted DNS performance of the self-developed DNS system, but also monitor the operation in a time series mode for a long time，and monitor DNS service performance visually in real time.
