Overall Satisfaction with Amazon Route 53
Amazon Web Service (AWS) Route 53 offers seamless Domain Name Services Offering , Route53 was used to register company domains in the cloud so that cloud based workloads such as EC2 instance and Applications can be integrated and joined with customer domains. For certain applications route 53 DNS was used to control the traffic across different regions.

- Cross account DNS service is not available
- DNS resolution between VNET
- Limited visibility from observability point of view
- Domain Integration
- Cross Region Traffic/Application Communication/Data Transfer
- DNS firewall
- High Available DNS service
- Cross Account DNS service is not possible
- Cross region/Filter based traffic routing
- Google Cloud DNS, Azure DNS and IBM Domain Name Services (DNS)
Amazon Route 53 DNS service is much better than GCP and Azure or any other cloud provider DNS service due to the fact that it not only provides basic DNS service but on top of it it offers firewall DNS feature i.e. rules and policies can be defined to allow/reject certain traffic. It also act as a load balancer across the regions which is missing or not available from other cloud based DNS service (different offering for this feature which means more cost)
