DNS, DHCP, and IP management platform for enterprise network security
Infoblox operates a network infrastructure and security platform built on DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (IPAM) primitives. The tech stack reveals a shift toward modernization: Kubernetes, Terraform, ArgoCD, and gRPC signal cloud-native architecture, while simultaneous adoption of SAML, OIDC, and Okta points to identity-layer strengthening. Active projects around a universal DDI product suite and next-generation security platform suggest the company is repositioning from legacy NIOS infrastructure toward broader network security, while hiring pressure in sales (60 roles) and engineering (58) reflects both product-market expansion and internal modernization debt.
