aws

Question

why we need to manually create aws records in route 53. I thought records are automatic because they are basic things to make communication between client and server. If we are using https protocol then why its not taking care of those records rules.

Answer 1

Well DNS records in Route 53 are not automatically created for AWS resources just because they need to be configured based on your specific requirements and also because DNS is a separate layer from the HTTPS protocol.
Also, AWS (ELB) or Amazon CloudFront can automatically provision some DNS records, but you still have the option to customize these records to meet your specific requirements.

Answer 2

Additionally, Route 53 provides advanced features like failover routing, weighted routing, and latency-based routing that require manual configuration to determine how DNS queries should be resolved based on your application's needs.
