Amazon Route 53 or AWS Route 53 is a DNS (Domain Name System) web service. It is renowned for its scalability and 100% uptime. We can use the Route 53 DNS for the services and machines that are deployed on Amazon’s public cloud. In addition to this, you can also purchase public domains and private domains from Route 53. In order to understand Route 53, we’ll first have to be familiar with DNS. So let’s get started.
What is DNS (Domain Name System)?
To understand simply, DNS commences the process of converting the hostname (www.example.com) into an IP address (192.168. 1.1).
But why is there a need to convert the hostname into IP address?
Reason: The computer doesn’t read the hostname or domain address as we do, instead of this, they detect and identify the IP address.
