Bit of a weird one here - well maybe not that weird. We started a migration of our DNS to bring it completely in house, and taking control of the IPS tags and everything. (im at the bottom of the rung by the way - the grunt).

So we moved all our zones to some external DNS box's - then with our DNS registrar told them any enquires for any NS records should all be pushed to our external box's. Then the architects left our company, and im now wondering what the gran plan was - i've raised the question why were we going to essentially going to become a DNS provider, know one seems to have a proper answer - what are the advantages ?

From what ive read on the internet some people are saying its not worth the hassle and admin involved, becoming your own dns provider. Then there's the argument it gives you more control, although we dont make drastic DNS changes all the time - im just wondering if anyone else has any other thoughts on why you'd want to do this ?

Manage it yourself - the admin overhead is negligible and the flexibility you get is second to none.
