Does anyone use CoreDNS? Outside of a Kubernetes cluster I mean.
- zrail 2y agoI use it as a caching proxy on my homeprod nodes. I want docker containers to be able to query Tailscale's MagicDNS without using host-mode networking everywhere. My config is really simple, just forward .ts.net to 100.100.100.100 and otherwise forward to NextDNS.
- whalesalad 2y agoHow’s Nextdns been? I’ve been using pihole for ages but i’m not too impressed by how much latency I have hitting my home network for dns when far from home. I use Tailscale to vpn on demand when off my home WiFi and route dns thru my pihole vm. Considering relocating it to a VPS but then I started to think maybe nextdns will be less painful to manage and offer better performance. I have decent upload speed (50mbit) but the latency over cellular isn’t the best.
- dilyevsky 2y agoYes lots of folks[0]. At Cruise we made use of it to do split dns when were migrating from aws to gcp but dont know if it’s still used [0] - https://github.com/coredns/coredns/blob/master/ADOPTERS.md https://github.com/coredns/coredns/blob/master/ADOPTERS.md
- remram 2y agoInteresting. I wonder how PowerDNS and CoreDNS compare, they seem to be targeting very similar use cases, with a strong focus on extensibility.
- dilyevsky 2y agoI personally prefer CoreDNS given its open nature (CNCF) and being written in Go but I'm a little biased :) There's probably a case to made for PowerDNS if you need to run something business critical on it and require support to be available with tight SLO. Also CoreDNS doesn't do recursive queries by default but there's an out-of-tree plugin wrapping libunbound[0] - its use-case is more of being a highly-configurable/programmable authoritative server.
