I don't think it is that great, because it makes it impossible to simply transfer the
entire DNS
zone to a local server and have faster DNS lookups independent of an internet
connection.
But it works, I guess...
Delegation has its pros and cons, and I'm not overly
fussed. I'm happy
for ARDC or someone delegated by them to host my DNS records. I just
want to be able to create and modify records for my IPs.
IMHO it would be better to offer a DNS update API, where everyone can update their own
host
records in an easily automated way. It of course exists in the form of the mail robot
and also
the web DNS editor but apparently some people think it is not good enough.
(I use the mail robot myself as part of an automated update)
I'm not aware of
either of those, the only documentation on the portal
that I've seen refers one to their coordinator, which is not an
acceptable solution for me.
