octoDNS is a Python tool for managing DNS records as code across multiple DNS providers. It uses a pluggable architecture so DNS zone configs can live in version control and be deployed like any other code.

Use cases

  • manage DNS records across multiple providers from one config
  • sync DNS zones between providers
  • keep DNS configuration in git with review workflow
  • migrate DNS zones to a new provider
  • automate DNS record deployment in CI

When to choose

  • you use multiple DNS providers and want a single source of truth
  • you want DNS changes reviewed and versioned like code
  • you need to sync or migrate zones between providers

When to avoid

  • you only use one provider and are happy with its native UI/API
  • you need real-time dynamic DNS updates rather than declarative sync
  • you need a web UI for managing DNS
