Can anyone recommend a cheap DNS service that does geographic-based load distribution? I know that Route53 offers something like this, but AFAIK it's only designed for products hosted on Amazon's platforms.
I've heard that geographic-based DNS has something of a bad reputation, but I think it would be a very good fit for a side project I'm working on.

- jdub 12y agoYou can do latency based load balancing to non-AWS endpoints with Route 53 -- the limitation is that you have to associate those endpoints with an AWS region. If your endpoints are not anywhere near an AWS region, you're stuck. Otherwise fine!
