Amazon Route 53 Domain Name Services

Amazon Route 53 is a highly available and scalable Domain Name System (DNS) web service. You can use Route 53 to perform three main functions in any combination: domain registration, DNS routing, and health checking.

You can integrate Amazon Route 53 with other AWS services to log requests that are sent to the Route 53 API, monitor the status of your resources, and assign tags to your resources. In addition, you can use Route 53 to route internet traffic to your AWS resources.

We rely on Route53 for both domain registrations and zone hosting for clients who already own their domain but would like us to manage their zone data for them.
