  1. Looking at #Cloudflare stats they've blocked around 2.4 million requests in the past 24hrs on my #DNSHistory site. Not sure I'll be turning under attack mode off any time soon 🙄.

  3. I enabled CAA record support on @DNSHistory last night. I thought it would be interesting to see how usage changes over time but they seem a little misunderstood 😬 .

    You've got those with sequential flags.
    dnshistory.org/dns-records/e-t.

    Then there are the "0" tags.
    dnshistory.org/dns-records/let.

    Those who want to stick a bit of binary in there.
    dnshistory.org/dns-records/tro.

    Those who stick it all in the value.
    dnshistory.org/dns-records/cod.

    And those who do both
    dnshistory.org/dns-records/orb.

  5. I have no idea why you'd want to do it but whilst fixing a @DNSHistory stats issue I spotted ~4500 domains have multiple (duplicated) SOA records.

    For example dig.domains/soa/mrmmobilya.com has 7 SOA records (via Google Public DNS). Quad9 only returns one but Cloudflare, OpenDNS, and a local PowerDNS Recursor also return 7.

  7. I've updated the numbers on dnshistory.org/ . It's now archived over 66 billion DNS records for 3.6 billion domains.

  9. Sorry folks but dnshistory.org/ now has Cloudflare "Under Attack" mode enabled - someone decided they'd request one page per IP to get around my rate limits and then hammered the crap out of the server 😭 .

  11. Less than a year later dnshistory.org/ now has data on 3 billion domains.

    I'm gonna need a bigger disk 😁 .

  13. Whilst moving #DNShistory data onto new #MongoDB servers I pondered how close to the 16MB limit things are getting. dnshistory.org/dns-records/mic is the biggest at 4.79MB, with dnshistory.org/dns-records/van coming in close at 4.78MB so I hopefully have a couple of years before I need to change things 🤞 .

  15. When I first setup dnshistory.org/ I thought I'd be lucky to archive DNS records for a million domains but 15 years later it will soon exceed 2 billion 🥳 .

    The recent increase is mostly from filling the gaps (a.b.example.com is in the database but b.example.com wasn't) or missing targets (example.org has an MX of mail.example.com but mail.example.com was missing) which should improve both navigation and looking up lost records. #DNSHistory

  19. I'm taking a look at adding an API for dnshistory.org/ for a website refresh. I've been asked a few times if there's a public/paid API - if there was what sort of calls would you like to see? #DNSHistory
