Amazon Route 53 Resolver endpoints now support DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) with Server Name Indication (SNI) validation

What's new at AWS 📢

✳️ This feature enabling customer to specify the target server hostname for DNS query requests from customer's outbound endpoints to DoH servers that require SNI for TLS validation.

✳️ With this launch, customer can now specify the hostname with customer's outbound endpoint configuration to perform TLS handshakes for their DNS requests from the outbound endpoints to the DoH server.

✳️ In addition, enabling SNI validation for DoH Resolver endpoints also helps customer to meet regulatory and business compliance requirements.

✳️ What is DoH on Amazon Route 53 Resolver endpoints:
❌ It helps to configure Route 53 Resolver endpoints with r without DNS to resolve DNS queries between on-premises and VPCs in the Regions.
❌ It is a feature that allows customer to encrypt DNS queries that pass through the Resolver endpoints.
❌ Also it is to improve privacy by minimizing the visibility of the information exchanged through the queries.
