DNS is not registrar services. Comparing Google Domains to Google Cloud DNS is like comparing apples and oranges. Though it's true you'll usually want both if you're working with domains OR DNS.
_Needing_ to interface with a 3rd party for a critical part of any web app or service feels like a step backward for Google's commitment to Cloud.
- jorams 3y agoThere's also Google Cloud Domains. It's entirely unclear if that's also being sold off, but the sale would make a bit more sense if it's not. It's insane how bad Google is at communicating things like this.
- anuraaga 3y agoI had never heard of this service but indeed, it seems to be a registrar builtin to GCP. I suppose this is not going to be killed, and presumably the reason they aren't migrating domains users to it is awkward mapping to GCP projects? It would be great to at least have a button to copy it over for people that do have a GCP project for it... Edit: it looks like there may indeed be such a button / command. Really strange they wouldn't communicate the option to keep customers on their services! https://cloud.google.com/domains/docs/import-domains https://cloud.google.com/domains/docs/import-domains
- CydeWeys 3y agoCloud Domains is just a wrapper around Google Domains. It's likely being killed off too.
