Simplify DNS management in a multi-account environment with Route 53 Resolver

In a previous post, I showed you a solution to implement central DNS in a multi-account environment that simplified DNS management by reducing the number of servers and forwarders you needed when implementing cross-account and AWS-to-on-premises domain resolution. With the release of the Amazon Route 53 Resolver service, you now have access to a native conditional forwarder that will simplify hybrid DNS resolution even more. In this post, I’ll show you a modernized solution to centralize DNS management in a multi-account environment by using Route 53 Resolver.

This solution allows you to resolve domains across multiple accounts and between workloads running on AWS and on-premises without the need to run a domain controller in AWS.

The premise behind autoscaling in AWS is simple: you can maximize your ability to handle load spikes and minimize costs if you automatically scale your application out based on metrics like CPU or memory utilization. If you need 100 Docker containers to support your load during the day but only 10 when load is lower at night, running 100 containers at all times means that you’re using 900% more capacity than you need every night. With a constant container count, you’re either spending more money than you need to most of the time or your service will likely fall over during a load spike.
