Question

Accepted Answer

Route 53 is a DNS web service that routes end users to internet applications by translating domain names to IP addresses.

Routing policies include simple, weighted, latency-based, failover, geolocation, and multivalue answer.
Simple routing policy sends traffic to a single resource.
Weighted routing policy distributes traffic based on assigned weights.
Latency-based routing policy sends traffic to the region with the lowest latency.
Failover routing policy routes traffic to a standby resource in case of failure.
Geolocation routing policy routes traffic based on the geographic location of the user.
Multivalue answer routing policy returns multiple IP addresses in response to DNS queries.
