***Version: 1.2  
Updated: April 29, 2026***

Farsight Security DNSDB® is the world’s largest DNS intelligence database that provides a unique, fact-based, multifaceted view of the configuration of the global Internet infrastructure.

## Actions

* **Lookup RRset** *(Enrichment)* - The “rrset” lookup queries DNSDB’s RRset index, which supports “forward” lookups based on the owner name of an RRset.
* **Lookup RData** *(Enrichment)* - The “rdata” lookup queries DNSDB’s Rdata index, which supports “inverse” lookups based on Rdata record values.
* **Get Rate Limit** *(Enrichment)* - Retrieve service limits.
