Domain Name System
A fully managed DNS service is planned for Origin Cloud: zones, records, and low-latency routing. This page describes what we intend to build.
Features
Managed DNS Hosting
Zones and records (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV), managed via console and API.
Fast and Reliable
Redundant authoritative nameservers you can delegate to from any registrar.
Traffic Routing Policies
Use weighted, failover, or geo-location routing to direct traffic efficiently.
Use Cases
Website Hosting
Point an apex record at a floating IP on your compute instance, without a second vendor.
Disaster Recovery
Use failover routing policies to automatically redirect traffic during outages.
Global Traffic Management
Answer with a different record set per requester region using geo-location policies.
Planned Service
Note: DNS is not yet built. This page describes the service we intend to offer, and its priority follows customer feedback.

New organisations are reviewed before the first launch: open beta runs on limited capacity, so we check we can host you, usually within a few hours.
