If services dies, there is a problem that is still going to exist after restarting.

I've had named blow out and it doesn't get restarted, it just stays dead. Rebooting the server is a heavy handed fix.

systemd will kick it back into gear if it drops.

Use nsd and/or unbound, they're more robust and faster than bind.

Good to know, hadn't really had a chance to explore those yet but will.

No software is entirely bug-free, so I do like having them relaunch on failure rather than stay dead.
