Deploy DDNS Updater in one click installation.
Lightweight self-hosted dynamic DNS updater that keeps A and AAAA records in sync across 40+ DNS providers.
What you can build with DDNS Updater
DDNS Updater is an open-source Go service that keeps DNS A and AAAA records pointed at the right IP across more than 40 DNS providers — Cloudflare, Gandi, Namecheap, Hetzner, OVH, Hurricane Electric, DuckDNS, Google Domains, and many more — from a single configuration file. It runs as a headless agent that only needs outbound connectivity, with status visible via container logs or a built-in HTTP dashboard reachable via SSH port-forward when you want a browser view.
Self-hosting DDNS Updater on your own VPS gives you a stable, always-on agent that can update DNS records for home routers, IoT gateways, secondary servers, or any other endpoint whose public IP changes. Provider credentials and update logic stay inside your infrastructure, and one instance can manage records spanning multiple domains and providers in parallel.
Key features of DDNS Updater
40+ DNS providers
Update records on Cloudflare, Gandi, Namecheap, Hetzner, OVH, Google Domains, DuckDNS, NoIP, Hurricane Electric, and dozens more from a single instance.
Periodic checks
Configurable polling cadence with cooldown windows so the public IP is fetched and records are updated only when actually needed.
IPv4 and IPv6
Tracks both A and AAAA records simultaneously, falling back gracefully when only one address family is available on the upstream connection.
Built-in status dashboard
Local-only read-only dashboard shows current record status, last update time, observed IP, and per-record errors when reached over an SSH port-forward.
Multi-provider IP fetch
Public IP is resolved by combining multiple HTTP and DNS-based providers, so a single upstream outage does not block all updates.
Notifications via shoutrrr
Optional shoutrrr integration sends alerts to Discord, Slack, Telegram, or email when an update fails or an IP change is detected.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.

Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
