DDI Solutions for Network, Cloud and Security Teams
DDI runs DNS, DHCP and IP address management as one system instead of three. EfficientIP delivers it on SOLIDserver, so the platform that assigns and tracks every address is also the one that enforces DNS security policy and feeds your automation tooling.
Integrated DDI services to simplify, automate and secure your network.
Start where you are
Choose the route that matches your situation: a technical need, your industry or role, or a move off your current DDI vendor. Each route filters the index below rather than taking you to a different page.
I run the network.
Unify DNS, DHCP and IPAM, and automate the address changes your team still makes by hand.
I own security risk.
Close the DNS attack surface: data exfiltration, DNS-layer malware, DDoS absorption and Zero Trust enforcement at the resolver.
I’m replacing a DDI vendor.
Move off Infoblox or VitalQIP without changing how your team works day to day.
All solutions
Filter by what you need, by your industry or role, or by the vendor you are moving off. Every card links to the full solution page, including the products that deliver it.

Replacing Infoblox or VitalQIP, or considering BlueCat
Most of the teams that move to EfficientIP are already running DDI somewhere else. The paths below cover what the migration involves, what changes for your operators, and what does not.
Coming from Infoblox.
SOLIDserver DDI takes over DNS, DHCP and IPAM with your existing operational model intact.
A professional services team that includes former Infoblox engineers designs, migrates, tests and deploys the new platform, transferring your zones, IPAM data and DHCP configuration directly. Manchester Metropolitan University found EfficientIP three times less expensive and more feature-rich.
Coming from VitalQIP.
Move to a platform that is still developed and supported, with cloud integration and DNS security included rather than bolted on.
The same professional services team supports the migration end to end, on a documented path customers describe as well outlined. Integrated DNS, DHCP and IPAM replace the separate tools VitalQIP left in place.
Considering BlueCat.
Compare SOLIDserver DDI with BlueCat on DNS security, automation surface and total cost before you commit to either.

Common questions about DDI solutions
How do I choose a DDI provider?
Compare four things: whether DNS, DHCP and IPAM are genuinely one platform or three integrated products; what DNS security is included rather than sold separately; how the API and automation integrations work with the tooling you already run; and what a migration from your current vendor actually involves.
Definitions first, if you need them: what DDI means and IP address management explained.
Do I have to replace my DNS and DHCP servers all at once?
No. SOLIDserver manages Microsoft DNS and DHCP servers and BIND and ISC DHCP servers as they stand, so the IPAM and the console can go in first while your existing servers keep running. SmartArchitecture then lets you move zones and scopes onto SOLIDserver appliances site by site, managing the mixed estate as a single entity throughout. When you are ready to retire Infoblox, EfficientIP’s professional services team runs the extract, zone transfer, conversion and import.
Which products deliver these solutions?
Every solution here runs on SOLIDserver. The product pages cover the individual components, including DNS Guardian, DNS Blast and the IPAM modules. See all products.
Can EfficientIP manage cloud and on-premises addresses together?
Yes. The cloud solutions cover visibility and DNS and IPAM automation across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud alongside on-premises networks, from the same platform.
