Amazon Route 53 Global Resolver enhances flexibility with regional DNS control

Amazon Route 53 Global Resolver now offers the capability to add and remove AWS Regions for anycast DNS resolution. This enhancement provides users with greater flexibility in managing where their DNS queries are resolved. Organizations can now more easily expand their Global Resolver coverage in line with growth or modify regional deployments to comply with specific requirements.

Global Resolver facilitates anycast DNS resolution for both public internet domains and private Route 53 hosted zones from any location. It also includes features such as DNS query filtering and centralized logging. With the latest update, users can dynamically adjust the AWS Regions involved in anycast resolution without needing to recreate their Global Resolver configuration.

This new functionality is available at no extra cost across all AWS Regions that support Route 53 Global Resolver. Interested users can refer to the Route 53 Global Resolver documentation for guidance on getting started. Information on regional availability can be found in the Route 53 Global Resolver Region list, and details on costs are available on the Amazon Route 53 pricing page.
