Amazon Route 53 Resource Replication with Arpio

Jump to:

Route 53 Private Hosted Zones

Arpio can replicate private hosted zones with their resource record sets, including resource records and alias targets.                              

The following attributes are translated if the attribute and private hosted zone are manually selected into the recovery environment:

Attribute

Translation

Amazon VPC

Translated to the corresponding VPC that Arpio manages in the recovery environment.


The following Alias Target and CNAME attributes are translated to the corresponding alias targets and CNAME attributes in the recovery environment:


Attribute

Translation

VPC Endpoints 

Translated to the corresponding regional public DNS of the VPC endpoint in the recovery environment. If the name of the VPC Endpoint in the resource record set points to a VPC endpoint hostname, Arpio will translate the name in the resource record set to resolve to the appropriate region. 

Classic Load Balancers

Translated to the corresponding canonical hosted zone name id in the recovery environment.

Application and Network Load Balancers 

Translated to the corresponding canonical hosted zone id in the recovery environment.

Elastic Beanstalk Environments 

Translated to the corresponding CNAME attribute in the recovery environment.



The following CNAME attributes are translated to the corresponding CNAME attributes in the recovery environment:


Attribute

Translation

Amazon ElastiCache

Replication Groups: Translated to the corresponding node group reader or primary endpoint address in the recovery environment.


Cache Cluster: Translated to the corresponding configuration endpoint address or the corresponding cache node endpoint address in the recovery environment. 

RDS Instance 

Translated to the corresponding endpoint address in the recovery environment.

Amazon Aurora 

Translated to the corresponding endpoint, reader endpoint, or custom endpoint in the recovery environment.

FSx File System for Windows

Translated to the corresponding DNS name of the file system in the recovery environment.

EFS File System

Translated to the corresponding DNS of the file system in the recovery environment. 

 

Route 53 Resolver

Resolver Configuration

Arpio replicates Route 53 resolver configurations to the recovery environment during application failover and during tests.  These are replicated alongside the VPCs that they are scoped to and are not shown in the UI as standalone resources.

Resolver DNSSEC Configuration

Arpio replicates Route 53 DNSSEC configurations to the recovery environment during application failover and during tests.  These are replicated alongside the VPCs that they are scoped to and are not shown in the UI as standalone resources.

Resolver Endpoint 

Arpio replicates Route 53 resolver endpoints to the recovery environment during application failover and during tests.  Both inbound and outbound endpoints are supported.

The following attributes are translated during replication:

Attribute

Translation

Host VPC ID

Translated to the corresponding VPC in the recovery environment.

IP Addresses

Translated to IPs within the range of the corresponding subnet in the recovery environment.

Security Group IDs

Translated to the corresponding security group that Arpio manages in the recovery environment.


The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when a resolver endpoint is selected:

  • The host VPC
  • Subnets referenced in the IP Addresses list
  • Security groups listed in Security Group IDs

Resolver Firewall Configuration

Arpio replicates Route 53 resolver firewall configurations to the recovery environment during application failover and during tests.  These are replicated alongside the VPCs that they are scoped to and are not shown in the UI as standalone resources.

Resolver Firewall Domain List 

Arpio replicates Route 53 firewall domain lists to the recovery environment during application failover and during tests.

No attributes require translation.  No additional resources are selected when a firewall domain list is selected.

Resolver Firewall Rule Group 

Arpio replicates Route 53 firewall rule groups to the recovery environment during application failover and during tests.

The following attributes are translated during replication:

Attribute

Translation

Firewall Rules

The domain list ID of each firewall rule is translated to the corresponding firewall domain list ID in the recovery environment.

Associations

Translated to the corresponding VPC that Arpio manages in the recovery environment.


The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when a resolver firewall group is selected:

  • Associated VPCs
  • Domain lists referenced by firewall rules

Resolver Query Log Configuration 

Arpio replicates Route 53 query log configurations to the recovery environment during application failover and during tests.

The following attributes are translated during replication:

Attribute

Translation

Associated VPCs

Translated to the corresponding VPC in the recovery environment.

Destination

Translated to the ARN of the corresponding log group in the recovery environment.

The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when a resolver query log config  is selected:

  • Associated VPCs
  • Log group referenced in DestinationArn

Resolver Rule 

Arpio replicates Route 53 resolver rules to the recovery environment during application failover and during tests.

Arpio also supports replicating rules that have been shared into the primary account from a different account using AWS Resource Access Manager.  The original resource must also be part of an Arpio application.  During a failover or test, both applications must be restored together.

The following attributes are translated during replication:

Attribute

Translation

Associated VPCs

Translated to the corresponding VPC in the recovery environment.

Resolver Endpoint

Translated to the corresponding resolver endpoint that Arpio manages in the recovery environment.


The following resources are automatically selected into recovery points when a resolver endpoint  is selected:

  • Resolver Endpoint (unless this rule is shared from another account)
  • Resource Access Manager Share (if this rule is shared by or with this account).
