PowerDNS-Admin is a self-hosted web interface for managing the PowerDNS Authoritative Server. It provides DNS zone and record management with role-based access control, multiple authentication backends, and an API.

Use cases

• manage powerdns dns zones from a web ui
• delegate dns record editing to teams with role-based access
• integrate dns admin login with ldap or saml single sign-on
• automate dns record creation via an api
• edit ipv6 ptr records easily
• apply zone templates for new domains
• audit dns changes with activity logging

When to choose

• you run PowerDNS Authoritative Server and need a friendly admin UI
• you need per-zone access control and multi-user DNS management
• you want SSO (SAML, LDAP, OAuth) and 2FA for DNS administration
• you need an API on top of PowerDNS for automation

When to avoid

• you use a DNS server other than PowerDNS
• you only need simple CLI-level DNS record changes without a web UI
• you run PowerDNS versions older than 5.0, which are no longer supported
