Once a traditional news organization, NDTV is now evolving into a diversified
global media group; in a 2008 survey done by MetrixLab, the second-largest
online research agency in Europe, NDTV.com was named the most popular Indian
news website. NDTV's 24-hour broadcast schedule and extensive online presence
mean that high availability and 100 percent uptime are of critical importance.
The superior reliability and performance of NeuStar's UltraDNS Managed DNS
Service are now helping NDTV Convergence fulfill its objective of achieving a
better user experience.

"When consumers have so many choices with which to address their online news
and infotainment needs, a great user experience - including guaranteed
availability of content - is critical," said Sanjay Trehan, CEO of NDTV
Convergence. "This applies to all components of the online infrastructure,
including DNS. We have partnered with NeuStar for this purpose, and have had
flawless DNS performance ever since."

NeuStar's UltraDNS suite of managed services is built on a fault-tolerant
global directory infrastructure that provides critical layers of network
security and reliability. UltraDNS technology and services allow enterprises
to seamlessly migrate their entire DNS infrastructures without any additional
