Radar DNS Insights with aggregated traffic and query analytics
Cloudflare Radar now provides expanded DNS insights from the 1.1.1.1 resolver, including visibility into aggregated traffic trends, protocol usage, and query characteristics. Three new API endpoints enable retrieval of DNS query volume over time and distribution summaries across ten dimensions like cache status, DNSSEC support, IP version, and response codes.
Radar has expanded its DNS insights, providing visibility into aggregated traffic and usage trends observed by our 1.1.1.1 DNS resolver. In addition to global, location, and ASN traffic trends, we are also providing perspectives on protocol usage, query/response characteristics, and DNSSEC usage.
Previously limited to the top locations and ASes endpoints, we have now introduced the following endpoints:
/dns/timeseries: Retrieves DNS query volume over time./dns/summary/{dimension}: Retrieves summaries of DNS query distribution across ten different dimensions./dns/timeseries_groups/{dimension}: Retrieves timeseries data for DNS query distribution across ten different dimensions.
For the summary and timeseries_groups endpoints, the following dimensions are available, displaying the distribution of DNS queries based on:
cache_hit: Cache status (hit vs. miss).dnsssec: DNSSEC support status (secure, insecure, invalid or other).dnsssec_aware: DNSSEC client awareness (aware vs. not-aware).dnsssec_e2e: End-to-end security (secure vs. insecure).ip_version: IP version (IPv4 vs. IPv6).matching_answer: Matching answer status (match vs. no-match).protocol: Transport protocol (UDP, TLS, HTTPS or TCP).query_type: Query type (A,AAAA,PTR, etc.).response_code: Response code (NOERROR,NXDOMAIN,REFUSED, etc.).response_ttl: Response TTL.
