Various arrangements for performing secure domain name system (DNS) routing are presented. A secure signature may be generated using an internet protocol (IP) address of an authorized device. An encoded character string may be generated that comprises the IP address. The domain name server may receive a request for an IP address mapped to the hostname. The hostname may be validated using the secure signature. The IP address of the authorized device may be decoded from the encoded character string at least partially in response to the hostname being validated by the domain name server. The IP address decoded from the encoded character string may be transmitted at least partially based on the hostname being validated and the request for the IP address.

In one embodiment, a device obtains application experience metrics for an online application. The device predicts, based on the application experience metrics, future application experience metrics for each of a set of provider endpoints for the online application. The device selects, based on the future application experience metrics, a particular provider endpoint from among the set of provider endpoints. The device provides, to a Domain Name System (DNS) resolver, resolution information for one or more of the set of provider endpoints that causes a query for one of those provider endpoints to resolve to an address of the particular provider endpoint.

Various embodiments describe methods, systems, and devices for deploying an application associated with a user-selected container on a home-network router. Exemplary implementations may include receiving, at the home-network router from a remote server, container acquisition data including configuration information and rules for downloading the user-selected container. Also, initiating, by the home-network router, operation of application logic of the user-selected container in response to downloading the user-selected container from a remote container registry. Further, updating, by the home-network router, a reverse proxy maintained in the home-network router through application logic, wherein the reverse proxy is configured to forward requests from operation of the user-selected container to one or more remote servers; transmitting, from the home-network router to a remote computing device, a notification that the application associated with the user-selected container is deployed.

Systems and methods are provided for distributing a domain name service (DNS) response cache in a DNS resolving system on a network. The systems and methods described herein may improve response times for client queries and also protect the DNS resolving system from DNS related cyber attacks
