I am excited to announce the DNS Workbench, a CloudLab-based tool for DNS Software testing and performance analysis. It's designed to help researchers and network professionals assess DNS software in a scalable, and controlled environment. A research team comprising
myself (a graduate student at UW–Madison) and collaborators from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, Colgate University, Virginia Tech, and Boston University used DNS Workbench to evaluate DNS resolver and authoritative server software under basic configurations
across a broad range of workloads. Please find the link to the software repo below. We would like to improve the capabilities and utility of the DNS Workbench. </div>
