Top 5
Provides high availability and scalability but can't handle multiple requests at the same time
Pros and Cons
  • "The scalability is the most valuable feature."
  • "Route 53 would be better if it had the ability to handle multiple requests at the same time because we have a lot of users. I would like that to be optimized in the next version."

What is our primary use case?

We use Amazon Route 53 for DNS management. We're doing continuous evaluations of our policies on AWS, which is another reason why we're using Amazon Route 53.

The solution is deployed on a private cloud.

We're a startup, so less than 100 people are using this solution.

What is most valuable?

The scalability is the most valuable feature.

What needs improvement?

Route 53 would be better if it had the ability to handle multiple requests at the same time because we have a lot of users. I would like that to be optimized in the next version.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used this solution for one year.

Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature is that it works very well."
  • "When we are looking at the model registry, it may be not clear sometimes. For example, if you use a single grid model and group or registry, it has a different SDK in the pilot. And it may be not so comfortable to use both of them because it is two different places for keeping things in order."

Our primary use case is as a tool for projects that require managing the DNS.

The most valuable feature is that it works very well.
