it is cheap. because human time is always worth more than paying for routes, requests and healthchecks (ps. you won't get healthchecks that easily with your own setup, especially not health checks that will remove/add servers from your dns.)

Do you genuinely not understand I'm talking about a production setup that already exists?

Like, if you think health checks are non-trivial you probably shouldn't be running your own DNS.


You clearly have needs that don’t match with the majority. That’s fine! I see nothing wrong with that. Arguing that Route53’s value proposition doesn’t fit your needs and therefore doesn’t fit anyone’s is disingenuous.


I'm specifically stating the idea it is cheaper was a misconception.

I didn't say everyone should quit Route53.
