Enom – We are aware of some issues affecting DNS and are working to resolve

It appears by as if Comcast DNS has dropped all Enom domains.

I understand having secondary name servers and switching application IPs, but (pardon my ignorance) how does an web application host or website achieve high availability in this scenario?

OpenDNS isn't resolving some of our domains as well

Pinging one of our sites that's available if we use, say Google DNS, returns this:

>> 64 bytes from hit-servfail.opendns.com (67.215.66.132): icmp_req=1 ttl=57 time=1.59 ms
