External Reverse DNS Lookup

I'm pretty new to Splunk and have currently been tasked to startup an App and am outfitting a dashboard for my team.

I'm currently in the process of researching ways on how to integrate an external reverse DNS lookup on an enterprise level. The goal is match/identify the business partner's name with their external connection's IP within our database. As of now, we just have a large scale of outbound/inbound ip's and it would benefit us to match a name to them.

Is this a possible task, and if it is what are best practices or known solutions to this request?

Thank you in advance!
