Linode (Akamai) Networking

DNS Manager

DNS Manager sits inside Linode’s Cloud Manager as a dedicated interface for handling your domain’s DNS records. It provides full oversight for configuring and managing these records, acting as the central control point for your networking setup. This integration means you don’t need a separate dashboard to tweak your domain settings, keeping everything unified within the existing cloud environment.

This setup suits teams already operating on Linode infrastructure who want tight integration without juggling external tools. The main catch is the lack of a free tier. You pay on a pay-as-you-go basis, so even minimal DNS management incurs costs. If you’re testing a small project or just need basic records, this pricing model might feel unnecessary compared to providers offering free DNS hosting.
