Question about Route 53 Resolver mapping

Question

From where does Route 53 Resolver get the value for a DNS query that it needs to resolve? Is this from the records that you define in a hosted zone?

Answer

Hi There

It depends where the record  is hosted.

**A Route 53 Resolver automatically answers DNS queries for:**
* Local VPC domain names for EC2 instances (for example, ec2-192-0-2-44.compute-1.amazonaws.com).
* Records in private hosted zones (for example, acme.example.com).
* For public domain names, Route 53 Resolver performs recursive lookups against public name servers on the internet.

**For other resources like on-prem:**

* Through Resolver endpoints and conditional forwarding rules, you can resolve DNS queries between your on-premises resources and VPCs to create a hybrid cloud setup over VPN or Direct Connect (DX)
