AWS – Amazon Route 53 Resolver now supports AWS PrivateLink

Amazon Route 53 Resolver now supports AWS PrivateLink. Customers can now access and manage Route 53 Resolver and all the related features (Resolver endpoints, Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall, Resolver Query Logging, Resolver for AWS Outposts) privately, without going through the public internet. AWS PrivateLink provides private connectivity between VPCs, AWS services, and on-premises applications, securely over the Amazon network. When Route 53 Resolver and its features are accessed via AWS PrivateLink, all operations, such as creating, deleting, editing, and listing, can be handled via the Amazon private network. 

Amazon Route 53 Resolver responds recursively to DNS queries from AWS resources for public records, Amazon VPC-specific DNS names, and Amazon Route 53 private hosted zones, and is available by default in all VPCs. Route 53 Resolver also offers features (Resolver endpoints, Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall, Resolver Query Logging, Resolver for AWS Outposts) that you can opt-into. You can use Resolver and its features with AWS PrivateLink in regions where Route 53 Resolver and all its associated features are available today, including the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. For more information about the AWS Regions where Resolver and its features are available, see here.
