A blog operator switched from Amazon CloudFront and Route 53 to Bunny.net's CDN and DNS services, citing cost savings and scriptable DNS answers. The move dropped geo-aware DNS costs from several dollars a month under Route 53's per-zone, per-query and healthcheck fees to nearly free under Bunny DNS. The operator also disabled logging on Bunny's CDN to limit personal data collection and noted Bunny.net currently lacks HTTP/3 support, though its support team said this is in development.

A roundup documents a wide range of experimental projects that repurpose the Domain Name System beyond simple name resolution, including tools like NUM, DNSFS, DNSKV, CatDNS, iodine and SlowDNS. These projects use DNS records and lookups to stream audio, store key-value data, transfer files, run VPNs, and even power a chatbot, alongside a note that DNS TXT records can also serve as a channel for malware payload delivery.

AWS introduced Route 53 Files, a feature that exposes hosted zones as a standard file system so DNS records can be edited with ordinary UNIX tools like a text editor. Changes made through the file system, the AWS console, the API, or CLI all sync automatically, and the file system can be mounted on EC2 instances, ECS or EKS containers, and Lambda functions.
