PROJECT
Using AWS Route 53 for Secure Routing
In this project, we’ll learn to use AWS Route 53 for traffic policy management. We’ll learn how to configure and use the AWS Command Line Interface. Finally, we’ll create different traffic policies to route web traffic securely.
You will learn to:
Configure the AWS Command Line Interface.
Manage hosted zones in AWS Route 53.
Create traffic policy documents.
Manage traffic policies to secure web traffic.

Project Description
Amazon Route 53 is a highly scalable cloud Domain Name System (DNS) web service. Its purpose is to give developers and businesses a highly reliable and cost-effective method of routing end users to internet applications by converting domain names into numeric IP addresses that computers use to communicate. Amazon Route 53 fully supports IPv6.
Route 53 is a part of Amazon’s cloud computing platform. It was released on December 5, 2010. Along with other traditional EC2 instances, Route 53 can route traffic to non-AWS infrastructure. It can also be used to monitor the health of its endpoints, regardless of whether the endpoints reside within AWS infrastructure or not. Route 53’s servers are located all over the world. Over IPv6, it enables full end-to-end DNS resolution. On IPv6 networks, recursive DNS resolvers can use either IPv4 or IPv6.
This project will teach us how to configure Amazon Route 53 using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI). After that, we’ll create hosted zones. Finally, we’ll learn to create and manage different traffic policy documents to securely route web traffic. Throughout this project, we’ll use the AWS CLI to create and modify the policy documents along with other common tasks. We can use the skills learned in this project to host our own website and create a seamless load balancer at the level of DNS.
