Overview

Make the DNS integrations and features that are provided from DNSPolicy via Amazon Route 53, Google Cloud DNS & Azure DNS available for an on-premise customer that needs to use their own "edge" DNS provider via integration with a Core DNS running on their cluster(s).

Goals - (user outcomes)

• Users will not need to rely on cloud provider DNS services in order to use RHCL to manage their DNS
• Users will be able to define GEO and Weighted strategies just as they do now
• Users will be able to leverage health checks to indicate if an endpoint is considered healthy or not
• Users will be able to set up DNS to work across multiple gateways and multiple clusters 

Time Line

• Developer Preview: April 2025
• Tech Preview: Oct 2025
• GA: TBD (2026)

Requirements

• Use of a cloud DNS provider should not be needed
• It must be possible to leverage the solution regardless of the "edge" DNS solution used
• It must be possible to use this solution on a single cluster or  multi cluster deployment topology
• Other than for initial installation and configuration, the user should be able to achieve everything they need via DNSPolicy and DNSProvider (IE it should "feel" like the other options)
