Network connections can be likened to attending an amusement park, where Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), serves as the ticket to enter the park and the domain name system (DNS) is the map around the park. Network management and security provider Infoblox made a name for itself by collapsing those two core pieces into a single platform for enterprises to be able to control where IP addresses are assigned and how they manage network creation and movement.

"They control their own DNS so that they can have better control over their traffic,” explained Anthony James, Infoblox vice president of  product marketing, in this latest episode of The New Stack Makers podcast, hosted by Alex Williams, founder and publisher of The New Stack.
