Frequently an LDAP server is used to distribute the same kind of information that Hesiod does. However, because Hesiod can leverage existing DNS servers, deploying it to a network is fairly easy. In a Unix-like system users usually have a line in the /etc/passwd file for each local user like: foo:x:100:10:Foo Bar:/home/foo:/bin/sh
GeoDNS (or GeoIP) is a patch for BIND DNS server software, to allow geographical split horizon (different DNS answers based on client's geographical location), based on MaxMind's geoip (commercial) or geolite (free) databases. The objective of this technology is to enhance the DNS resolution based on the geographical location of the client. [1]

The name is a possible reference to U.S. Routes, [1] and "53" is a reference to the TCP/UDP port 53, where DNS server requests are addressed. [2] Route 53 allows users to reach AWS services and non-AWS infrastructure and to monitor the health of their application and its endpoints. Route 53's servers are distributed throughout the world.
Round-robin DNS is a technique of load distribution, load balancing, or fault-tolerance provisioning multiple, redundant Internet Protocol service hosts, e.g., Web server, FTP servers, by managing the Domain Name System's (DNS) responses to address requests from client computers according to an appropriate statistical model.
Dnsmasq is a lightweight, easy to configure DNS forwarder, designed to provide DNS (and optionally DHCP and TFTP) services to a small-scale network. It can serve the names of local machines which are not in the global DNS. Dnsmasq accepts DNS queries and either answers them from a small, local cache or forwards them to a real, recursive DNS server.
In March 2018, Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced that GoDaddy was migrating the vast majority of its infrastructure to AWS as part of a multi-year transition.

A zone transfer uses the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for transport, [1] [2] and takes the form of a client–server transaction. The client requesting a zone transfer may be a secondary server requesting data from a primary server. [3] The portion of the database that is replicated is a zone.
