External-DNS

External-DNS

External-DNS is an open source tool designed to automatically manage DNS records in Kubernetes environments.

Its main function is to ensure that services running in Kubernetes are accessible through friendly names, facilitating integration between infrastructure and DNS services.

Main benefits and features of External-DNS

Automation

Reduces the need for manual interventions when creating or modifying DNS records by automatically updating entries based on changes in the state of services in Kubernetes.

Scalability

As new applications or services are deployed, External-DNS can easily manage the addition of new DNS records, making it a scalable solution for dynamic environments.

Consistency

Ensures that DNS records are always up to date and consistent with the current state of services, minimizing the possibility of human error.

Integration with Cloud Providers

Supports multiple DNS providers (such as AWS Route 53, Google Cloud DNS, Azure DNS, among others), allowing companies to utilize their existing infrastructure.

Resilience

With automation and continuous updating, services become more resilient to failures as DNS records are quickly adapted in case of changes to pods or services.

Improved User Experience

With stable and accessible DNS addresses, end users have a more fluid and reliable experience when accessing applications.
