OTTAWA, Dec. 13, 2017 /CNW/ - Today, SX Registry SA, the operator of .SX country code top-level domain on behalf of the Sint Maarten government, announced that its domain registry is now running on the Canadian Internet Registration Authority's (CIRA) Fury Registry Platform.
CIRA's Fury Registry Platform is a next-generation TLD management platform with features and functionality designed for the modern TLD business. Fury features a modern interface with role-based access to key registry functions that provide flexibility in pricing, promotion, and domain management to help operators run their business and grow their registry.
The migration to Fury took less than 30 days, and was executed seamlessly by the CIRA transition team.
Key Facts
- The Fury Registry Platform builds on CIRA's more than 20 years of experience managing the .CA domain and brings TLD operators enhanced features to support a modern TLD business.
- Many of Fury's advanced features can be adjusted on-demand, without technical interventions, allowing marketing and finance teams to directly manage and report on a domain's promotional activity.
- The Fury platform is flexible and modular to accommodate both ccTLDs such as .SX, and gTLDs, such as .KIWI which adopted the platform last year.
