The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical and decentralized naming system for devices, services, or other resources connected to the Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities. Most prominently, it translates more readily memorized domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for locating and identifying computer services and devices with the underlying network protocols.
This is a monolithic DNS server that provides many types of DNS service, including caching, Dynamic DNS update, zone transfer, and DNS notification. DNS notification implements a push mechanism for notifying a select set of secondary servers for a zone when it is updated.
It is a mission-critical component for any online business. Tidal Media Inc. provides you with a pre-configured image of DNS Server on Windows Server 2019, hardened and ready-to-deploy on AWS.

You pay by the hour for a ready-to-run Microsoft DNS server on Windows Server 2019. Pricing is tied to the EC2 instance type you choose, not to features. All instance types run the same software image; they differ only in compute, memory, and networking capacity. The t2, t3, and t3a types are general-purpose instances for lighter workloads. The m3, m4, m5, m5a, m5ad, m5d, m5dn, and m5n types scale up through larger sizes, from nano and large to metal. Your hourly rate rises as you select a larger instance size.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What exactly am I paying for with each hourly instance type?
You pay for the EC2 compute resource that runs the DNS server image. The instance type sets your virtual CPU, memory, and network capacity. Each type carries its own hourly software rate. The DNS software itself is identical across all types; only the underlying machine size changes.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or powered off?
Hourly software charges apply only while the instance runs. A stopped or powered-off instance stops accruing software charges. Note that AWS may still bill underlying storage for a stopped instance, but that is separate from this listing's hourly software rate.
How does my bill change when I move to a larger instance size?
Each instance type bills at its own hourly rate, and larger sizes carry higher rates. You are charged for whichever type is running, by the hour. Switching sizes means you stop paying the old type's rate and start paying the new one. There is no upfront commitment.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
