WhoIS Report
Really fascinating project came through Spiceworks the other day and I wanted to talk about it. In the DNS forum someone posted that they needed a tool to lookup certain WhoIs information. The interesting part was they had over 1000 domains so they needed something that could create a report on that kind of scale, so a simple WhoIs website or application wasn’t going to cut it. But as I looked at it, I began to wonder if this was something I could pull off with PowerShell? I knew there would be no problem once I had the data, but the trick would be getting the data. But surely there was a RESTful API out there for WhoIs data, right? If I could find that then a simple Invoke-RestMethod should retrieve the data necessary and we’re good to go. Right?
