The record

Product: BlueCat Horizon is a SaaS platform for coordinating DNS, DHCP, IPAM, and network operations across hybrid and multicloud environments.
Current service: Horizon DDI Orchestration is the first generally available service on the Horizon platform and includes SaaS-hosted IPAM and centralized DNS/DHCP orchestration.
IP inventory: Hosted IPAM provides a centralized inventory of networks, subnets, and IP addresses across hybrid and multicloud environments.
Integrations: The platform works with Microsoft Active Directory, BIND, Kea, cloud DNS, third-party components, and BlueCat solutions.
Deployment: Lightweight agents connect existing DNS and DHCP environments to Horizon without requiring disruptive cutovers or appliance swaps.
API: Network teams can standardize changes and synchronize data from a single interface and API.
Data residency: Services can continue running locally through agents and service points while Horizon provides SaaS-based governance.
Access control: Horizon supports granular role-based access so administration can be delegated by region, business unit, or function.
Security and trust: BlueCat’s Trust Center lists SOC 2 Type II certifications and describes its security and compliance program; some trust documents require access requests.
Roadmap limitation: Advanced DNS services are marked coming soon, and observability and AI-assisted operations are described as platform vision rather than general-availability commitments.
License meter: BlueCat lists Horizon DDI Orchestrator as a subscription metered by Unique Active IP; it defines this to include addresses with DNS records, DHCP leases or assignments, or recent active discovery.
Trial: BlueCat offers a trial request form but does not state a trial duration on that page.
Support: BlueCat advertises 24/7 multichannel technical support and documentation for its products.
Intended users: BlueCat describes Horizon as a strong fit for hybrid and multicloud enterprises, mixed-vendor DNS/DHCP environments, and branch-heavy organizations needing local survivability with centralized control.
