What are the different types of routing policies in Route 53 - AWS Blog Info
Following are the different types of routing policies in route53:
Simple Routing Policy
Simple Routing Policy is a simple round-robin policy which is applied to a single resource doing the function for the domain, For example, web server is sending the content to a website where web server is a single resource.
It responds to DNS queries based on the values present in the resource.
Weighted Routing Policy
Weighted Routing Policy allows you to route the traffic to different resources in specified proportions. For example, 75% in one server, and 25% in another server.
Weights can be assigned in the range from 0 to 255.
Weight Routing policy is applied when there are multiple resources accessing the same function. For example, web servers accessing the same website. Each web server will be given a unique weight number.
Weighted Routing Policy associates the multiple resources to a single DNS name.
Latency-based Routing Policy
Latent-based Routing Policy allows Route53 to respond to the DNS query at which data center gives the lowest latency.
Latency-based Routing policy is used when there are multiple resources accessing the same domain. Route53 will identify the resource that provides the fastest response with lowest latency.
