Knot DNS

High-performance authoritative DNS server

About Knot DNS

Knot DNS is an authoritative DNS server built for high performance and fast zone loading on modern multi-core hardware. It is typically installed on Linux servers or containers and administered through configuration files, a CLI, or a built-in web interface. Users who outgrow a hosted free tier often choose it to remove limits while keeping the same familiar workflow they already know.
